Internal memo to all FBN executive officers:

We've just got to get a receptionist. I'm getting really tired of these "While you were out" messages piling up on my desk. It wouldn't be so bad if the messages you guys leave made some sense.

Now, what the heck am I supposed to think the following example means ???

Caller: some guy at some place called the Vatican
Date: today
Time: right in the middle of our afternoon nap time
Subject: corporate sainthood for FBNA
Comment: quoted TED about FBNA being in it to help the world, and not to make a quick buck.
Action required: attend ceremony on Tuesday.

Huh???? What the heck does that mean? What ceremony? Which Tuesday?

I certainly hope that this was not an important investor relations seminar that I'll be missing because I don't know when or where it is.

Hey, Kevin Watson, Mr. VP of Human Resources ... do you have any resumes in your files that could fill the position of receptionist?
