Why I fired my secretary
A few weeks ago was my birthday and I wasn't feeling too good that
morning. I went to breakfast knowing my wife would be pleasant and say,
"Happy Birthday!", and probably would have a present for me. As it
turned
out, she didn't even say good morning, let alone any happy birthday. I
thought, well, that's wives for you, the children will remember....
The children came into breakfast and didn't say a word. So when I left
for
the office, I was feeling pretty low and despondent....
As I walked into my office, my secretary Janet said, "Good morning,
Boss.
Happy Birthday". And I felt a little better that someone had
remembered. I
worked until noon, then Janet knocked on my door and said, "You know,
it's
such a beautiful day outside, and it's your birthday, let's go to
lunch,
just you and me."
I said, "That's the greatest thing I've heard all day. "Let's go!" We
went
to lunch. We didn't go where we normally go; instead we went out to a
private little place We had two martinis and enjoyed lunch
tremendously.
On the way back to the office, she said, "You know, it's such a
beautiful
day. We don't need to go back to the office, do we?"
I said, "No, I guess not."
She said, "Let's go to my apartment." After arriving at her apartment
she
said, "Boss, if you don't mind, I think I'll go into the bedroom and
slip
into something more comfortable".
She went into the bedroom and, in about six minutes, she came out
carrying
a huge birthday cake... .. followed by my wife, children, and dozens of
our friends, all singing Happy Birthday.
And I just sat there........... on the couch............ naked.
