As the CFO of this business that employees 140 people, I have resigned myself to the fact that with Barack Obama as our next President, 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 six 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 8 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.
If you have a better idea, let me know.

Do it...
The others are obviously there to work and keep the country flowing...
Excellent wisdom displayed by the CFO...right, change is what it is all about...they’ll wake up to real change. Nice call.
BETTER IDEA...
Redistribute their paychecks to the associates lowest on the totum poll!!!
I’m going to tell my boss tomorrow he needs to get rid of all those idiots at his business.
I hope he realizes that when laid off those people will report him to the Secret Federal Police.
