Received this email today and thought it was hysterical so i am passing it on.
As the CFO of this business that employees 140 people, I have resigned myself to the undeniable fact that Barrack Obama will be our next President in January, and that our taxes and government fees will increase in a BIG way.
To compensate for these increases, I figure that clients will have to see an increase in our fees to them of about 8% but since we cannot increase our fees right now due to the dismal state of our economy, we will have to lay off six of our employees instead. This has really been eating at me for a while, as we believe we are family here and I didn't know how to choose who will have to go.
So, this is what I did. I strolled thru our parking lot and found six Obama bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided these folks will be the first to be laid off. I can't think of a more fair way to approach this problem. These folks wanted change and I gave it to them.
If you have a better idea, please let me know.
Sincerely,
Bob

Sell your corporate jet and reduce your compensation to $1.00 per year.
This way when they come to tax the rich you wont be one. :rofl:

When I was young, I was Liberal. As I aged and wised up, I became Conservative. Now that I'm old, I have settled on Curmudgeon.

Only 6 out of 140, might as well find 8 more and make it a full 10% reduction in labor force. Never hurts to be proactive.
