unparalleled glee
Alex and I were in Brooklyn Saturday night to celebrate a friend’s birthday and the arrival of some out-of-town deejay friends. We were chomping away at dumplings and noodles at 11 PM when his phone rang. It was his boss, he needed something for the next day if Alex did not have it on his computer at home, he needed him to come into the office. Eleven o’clock pm,christian louboutin shoes. Saturday night. Alex was understandably livid.
“You are NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THAT MESSAGE, Alex!” I said. “Obviously, your phone is broken, and was broken all weekend, and you had no way to receive that message, and oh, better luck next time, fool! What are you, on crack? calling before midnight on a Saturday night to come into the office?”
Needless to say, Alex was not the only one fuming,christian louboutin shoes. Also needless to say, he ignored the message, but mostly because he knew what was coming up this morning.
Retaining from when I quit my terrible, awful job two months ago, we were able to draft his resignation letter in no time.
“It is with unparalleled glee that I present to you the joyous tidings of my imminent departure. My last day will be May 3rd, an UNcoincidental 24 hours after I vest in your pension plan, meeting my minimum requirements.”
Now, in the practice dictation of this subtly crafted telegram, Alex moons his boss before bowing out. I think it’s perfect, but I’ll have to keep you posted as to whether I end up bailing him out when he inevitably gets led out in handcuffs. But, you really gotta love a man who knows how to make an exit, non,christian louboutin sale?
