A rare inside look at the headquarters of the Stafford Corporation.  The Auditing Department is normally considered the heart of any major Corporation and equipped with the latest technology.   But on a Friday afternoon in the heat of the summer only one sound could be heard.Nothing else to say, but I'll leave you with a tip, buy Stafford Corporation shares at 33 1/3.  You can't go wrong.

Thank you David, these always leave a smile on my face for weeks.

You guys have me rolling on the floor.  And for once, I'm speechless!

PS: Just a suggestion, but Angelina Jolie would be my first choice.  And she now available.

OK, I know, the speechlessness didn't last that long.

Then again, they can do anything with special effects these days...

I might wait for the Cliff Notes version to come out...or the movie version.  Though I have NO idea if there's a female Hollywood lead out there who can blow a whistle from inside her pants. Auditions start next week!  #Oscarmaterial.

You should write a book, Dean.

     It is with great sorrow that I must announce the firing of Fungible Phyllis.  It turned out that she was a fraud.  Apparently the sort of coaxing noise that came from deep within her was nothing more than a whistle she carried around in her pants pocket.  The whistle has now been confiscated, however we could not find anyone willing to blow into it until the results came back from the lab.

     It was then decided to buy a new microwave and make redundant Fungible Phyllis without passing 'Go' or collecting $200.  Life in the corporate world can sometimes be cruel.  That's why I made a copy of the key to the executive washroom.  I figure that way I'll always have a place to go.

You could say that.

Ah...So Fungible Phyllis finally found her forté...flinging telepathic photons in the food foyer. Huh. Go figure.

Fungible Phyllis, passed from one Human Resources to another until finally one day they discovered her talent: she was the only person who could get the microwave to work. She made a sort of coaxing noise that came from deep within her that the microwave responded to. They moved her desk next to the Tidy Snack dispenser where she resides to this day. Based on a true story.
