Why I Fired My Secretary: Two weeks ago, was my forty-fifth birthday, and I wasn't feeling too hot that morning anyway. I went into breakfast, knowing my wife would be pleasant and say Happy Birthday and probably have a present for me. She didn't even say Good Morning, let alone any Happy Birthday. I said, well, that's wives for you. The children will remember. The children came into breakfast and didn't say a word. When I started to 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; someone had remembered. I worked until noon. About noon 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, "By George, 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; we went out into the country to a little private 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, we had another martini and smoked a cigarette and 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 six minutes, she came out.... carrying a big birthday cake, followed by my wife and children. All were singing Happy Birthday... and there on the couch I sat.... with nothing on but my socks...... ----------------------- Headers -------------------------------- Received: from mrin86.mail.aol.com (mrin86.mail.aol.com [152.163.116.124]) by air06.mail.aol.com (v34) with SMTP; Thu, 16 Oct 1997 19:49:26 -0400 Received: from rintin.hccompare.com (rintin.hccompare.com [207.19.134.3]) by mrin86.mail.aol.com (8.8.5/8.8.5/AOL-4.0.0) with ESMTP id TAA16966 for <MARLHA@AOL.COM>; Thu, 16 Oct 1997 19:49:25 -0400 (EDT) From: Joan_Miller_at_HCCA-PHOENIX@hccompare.com Received: from rintin.hccompare.com (root@localhost) by rintin.hccompare.com (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id RAA16696 for <MARLHA@AOL.COM>; Thu, 16 Oct 1997 17:31:11 -0500 (CDT) Received: from jane.hccompare.com (jane.hccompare.com [13.1.6.51]) by rintin.hccompare.com (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id RAA16631 for <MARLHA@AOL.COM>; Thu, 16 Oct 1997 17:31:06 -0500 (CDT) Received: from ccMail by jane.hccompare.com (SMTPLINK V2.11 PreRelease 4) id AA877052937; Thu, 16 Oct 97 16:39:23 cst Date: Thu, 16 Oct 97 16:39:23 cst Encoding: 64 Text Message-Id: <9709168770.AA877052937@jane.hccompare.com> To: MARLHA@AOL.COM Subject: Fwd: Joke: Why I Fired My Secretary
