I hope you have something to bargain with, otherwise bosses tend to issue pink slips.

Im sorry you are having a lousy day.
I picked the rest of our green tomatoes yesterday to fry. As the last few get ripe they are rotting on the vine before you can pick them.

Well I found a Vespa Scooter (total electric) nice photo of it in the Saks 5th Ave catalog and only costs $2550.00 brand new and told him when he gets us that then we will run HIS employees to and from work and all his other errands! LOL our protest ended in a stand-off with neither side caving in. One 5 yr employee he went and got her while the rest us us staged our stubborned protest against burning our fuel to run all over town like a taxi service. But at least now I have a photo to show Santa what I want for Christmas this yr!!! Oh I really do love this scooter Santa!!!!! Pweeze!

Hey and he didn't call in the Vice Squad & their Full Metal jacket & pepper spray to disperse us OH thanks be!!!!

He actually had you guys running errands for him! Not to mention the price of gas.
Gas is down to $2.99 a gallon here for regular.

As of just last week we had no gas and very little if any available for over a 2 week period, something went haywire it was a virtual zoo here in our neck of the woods. As of yesterday all is getting back to norm. and gas is about $2.99 a gal here as well, it was over $4.00 for quite a while!

So.... I hope my protest was well NOTED, and I did not get a green slip Thank God, but I had to draw a line in the sand and as Off. Mgr. I put my foot down, my boss is great in a zillion ways and only has very few shortcomings, he just gets short-sighted and forgets we are avg. Joe's plucking away to make it from one pay day to the next unlike him, he forgets those days of watching the fuel tank & praying to have enough to last. Then when we are called upon to make unexpected trips to & fro well you get the gist!

P.S. I have been called a wee-bit "nutty" at times and we have a blast at work and get away with so many fun times. It is hard for folks to know when I am joking, serious, or half-serious and just making a point in a good-natured way. My boss actually spends half his time laughing at me, with me or simply giving up shaking his head and walking away and ignoring me completely
