As the CEO of this organization, I have resigned myself to the fact
that
Barack Obama is our President, and that our taxes, and government fees
will
increase in a BIG way.
To compensate for these increases,
our prices would have to increase by
about 10%. Since we cannot increase our
prices right now due to the dismal
state of the economy, we will have to lay
off six of our employees instead.
This has really been bothering me,
since I believe we are family here
and I didn't know how to choose who would
have to go. So, this is what I
did. I walked through our parking lot and
found six Obama bumper stickers on
our employees' cars and have decided these
folks will be the ones to let go.
I can't think of a more fair way to
approach this problem. They voted
for change; I gave it to them.
I will see the rest of you at the annual company picnic.
