WHY I SACKED MY SECRETARY
>
>
Last week was my birthday and I didn't feel very well waking up on that morning.
>
>
I went downstairs for breakfast
hoping my wife would be pleasant and say, 'Happy Birthday!', and possibly have a
small present for me.
>
>
As it turned out, she barely said good morning, let alone 'Happy Birthday.'
>
>
I thought..
>
>
Well, that's marriage for you, but the kids, they will remember.
>
>
My kids came bounding down stairs to breakfast and didn't say a word.
So when I left for the office, I felt pretty low and somewhat despondent.
>
>
As I walked into my office, my secretary Jane said, 'Good Morning Boss, and by
the way
Happy Birthday!' It felt a little better that at least someone had remembered.
>
>
I worked until one o'clock, when Jane knocked on my door and said, 'You know,
It's such a beautiful day outside, and it is your Birthday, what do you say we
go out to lunch, just you and me.'
I said, 'Thanks, Jane, that's the greatest thing I've heard all day.
Let's go !'
>
>
We went to lunch.
But we didn't go where we normally would go. She chose instead at a quiet bistro
with a private table. We had two martinis each and I enjoyed the meal
tremendously.
>
>
On the way back to the office,
Jane said, 'You know, It's such a beautiful day... We don't need to go straight
back to the office, Do We ?'
>
>
I responded, 'I guess not.
What do you have in mind ?'
She said, 'Let's drop by my apartment, it's just around the corner.'
>
>
After arriving at her apartment,
Jane turned to me and said,
' Boss, if you don't mind, I'm going to step into the bedroom for just a moment.
I'll be right back.'
'Ok.' I nervously replied.
>
>
She went into the bedroom and,
after a couple of minutes, she came out carrying a huge birthday cake ...
Followed by my wife, my kids, and dozens of my friends and co-workers, all
singing 'Happy Birthday'.
>
>
>
>
And I just sat there...

On the couch...
