Bob woke up after the annual office Christmas party with a pounding
headache, cotton-mouthed and utterly unable to recall the events
of the preceding evening. After a trip to the bathroom, he made
his way downstairs, where his wife put some coffee in front of him.
"Louise,"
he moaned, "tell me what happened last night.
Was it as bad as I think?"
"Even worse,"
she said, her voice oozing scorn. "You made a complete ass
of yourself. You succeeded in antagonizing the entire board of directors
and you insulted the president of the company, right to his face."
"He's an
idiot," Bob said. "Piss on him!"
"You did," came the reply. "And he fired you."
"Well,
screw him!" said Bob.
"I did. You're back at work on Monday."
