Letter from the boss...

Letter from the Boss,

As the CFO of this business that employees 140 people, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barrack Obama will be our next President, and that our taxes and government fees will increase in a BIG way.

To compensate for these increases, I figure that the Clients will have to see an increase in our fees to them of about 8% but since we cannot increase our fees right now due to the dismal state of our economy, we will have to lay off six of our employees instead. This has really been eating at me for a while, as we believe we are family here and I didn't know how to choose who will have to go.

So, this is what I did. I strolled thru our parking lot and found 8 Obama bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided these folks will be the first to be laid off. I can't think of a more fair way to approach this problem. These folks wanted change; I gave it to them.

If you have a better idea, let me know.

Sincerely,

The Boss

Wow this is priceless. I hope the all the ignorant Obama supporters are the first ones to lose there job. But then again with the social programs he promises to offer no one will really need a job to live a life of luxury. What a world, i still have trouble believing that he is going to be our next president.
Another thing that pisses me off is that all the democrats are saying well even if you didnt vote for him you need to support him he is your new president soon. Well i have a question for all these as*holes where was your support for Bush when he made a few less than perfect decisions? The liberals have never supported a republican as president and do there best to spin the new and make the conservative look foolish. I could care less if Obama is our president you will never catch me supporting him or his political party.

The whole business is going down the poop shoot with a moron like that running it.
So, he put that in a letter, signed it and distributed it to the employees?
He should just have the title to his house an car in hand when the lawyers come knocking.

I think it would only be awesome for the eight employees with Obama stickers.
Everyone else would get hurt by such foolishness.

It's like dropping fish food in an overpopulated koi pond at the zoo... or a crane operator cutting himself getting out of his rig that just fell into an amazon river... love to watch the feeding frenzy of people who don't have a sense of humor...
