While sorting and tossing a bunch of old files this weekend, I came across a letter that I had written many many years ago (1996, to be exact). A business letter, specifically. Of the sort that you write, and maybe show to a co-worker, and then toss and write the 'real' letter.
I hereby share it with you, names and specifics deleted.
( the meerkat abuses the sarcasm. also the bitter. )At this point, my boss came in and started reading over my shoulder, and laughed so hard we had to leave the office and go for lunch to calm down, so the rest remained unwritten. Alas.
Between this, and the later PaperGate incident (don't ask, it's too hot to make me froth and swear), it was mutually agreed I not talk to Hollywood any more. And everyone (except
dianora2 who got stuck with the job) was much happier.
God, that letter brings back memories. How I managed not to kill anyone in that job is still a mystery....
