Change....This is excellent and a good idea....

Fellow Business Executives:

As the CFO of this business that employees 140 people, I have resigned
myself to the fact that Barrack Obama is our next President, and
that our taxes and government fees will increase in a BIG way.

To compensate for these increases, I figure that the 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 eight 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 eight 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; I gave it to them
