I Fired My Secretary!
This might happen to you..
Two weeks ago was my 35th birthday. I sat
down for breakfast with my family, knowing my wife
would be pleasant
and say "Happy Birthday!" and probably have a
present for me.
As it turned out, she didn't even say good
morning, let alone happy
birthday. I thought, well, that's just great,
maybe the children will
remember.
The children came in to breakfast and didn't say a
word.
So when I left for the office, I was feeling
pretty low.
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 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."
"Sure!" I excitedly replied.
She went into the bedroom and, in about five
minutes, she came out
carrying a huge birthday cake followed by my wife,
my children and a
dozen of our friends, all singing Happy Birthday.
And I just sat there.
On the couch.
Naked.
