I love you guys! You know that, right? Anybody ever need a shoulder just holler, I know I should return the favor.
Thanks for brightening my day!
Beth
PS -MsRobbie, you have a point, I don't think chains would smoke very well at all, and they'd probably taste horrible!

Dear Ms. Street,
Thank you for submitting your resume for our consideration. Unfortunately your skills do not meet the needs of our current clients.
We will, of course, retain your resume in the hopes that a client who requires your "unique" skill set will surface sometime in the new millenium.
I do however, have some questions about your reference check.
In checking the references you have provided we were distressed to find not one who had actually seen you at a typewriter, computer, or operating any other office equipment. Perhaps they were mistaken?
There were some references who mentioned that they had seen you take dictation on occasion, but no one seems to be able to report on your actual abilities. Perhaps you could provide us with further references?
In doing the background check our firm always embarks on before placement, we also found some unsettling discrepancies. A check with the LA police department indicates that you have been questioned several times regarding high profile cases of one Perry Mason, Attorney at Law. While we're all for employer confidentiality, we respectfully request that you provide us with more details.
Ms. Street, frankly, we're very concerned that you may be slightly out of sync with the demands on today's Administrative Assistant.
You list among your Special Skill sets, the ability to serve coffee, to appear well groomed in any situation, and to function as a "Gal Friday", yet there is no real evidence that you have actual office skills.
I am forwarding your resume to an acquaintance of mine. It's my understanding that Julie McCoy has left the Love Boat and that they are in need of a new Cruise Director.
Consider it!
Reg Barkley,
Executive Recruiter

All I can say is OMG! That's too funny. Andrea, you really need to get a skit going, a line in a paper/magazine, something. You're missing your calling with your ability to write and make people laugh.
I don't suppose it's possible to keep this going? It's too funny! Makes a great de-stressor on a Friday afternoon. I'm ready for the weekend!

script notes from unreleased Warner Brothers epic, "Streetcar Named Retire"
. . . screen fades in to Raymond Burr (as Perry Mason, but dressed in a wet, white t-shirt ala Stanley Kowalski AKA Marlon Brando) outside Della Street's apartment, standing outside her patio/balcony. Rain is pouring down Perry's face. Perry pulls his hair and screams . . .
"Dellllaaaaahhhh, Dellllaaaahhh!"
Della Street comes to the window, looks down at Perry, smiles, laughs, and goes back inside to watch a re-run of "Greatest American Hero" on the tube.
. . . fade out . . . .
Obviously, with nothing better to do in Las Vegas, I am . . .
Robbie

I'm all alone up here in the Admin. area, which is a really good thing because I'm laughing my head off! I vaguely remember watching reruns of Perry Mason when I was very little, but I sure would love to see an old episode now!
Thanks for the great laughs and the stress release!
Only me, little old Elizabeth.
