    Hey, Dick. I've got a suggestion for one more cut you might wanna consider.

    I've gotten the same memo twice in the last year from the same guy.

    Instead of saying "we don't see any future cuts" they should tell the truth. Say "we have absolutely no idea what's going to happen in six months."

    No, but now that you mention it, he does seem rather, well, dickish.

    I love how he addresses the memo with "folks."


    "You know, we're all in this together, folks. Now, I need to get to my massage."

    Well, at least there's truth in advertising with his name.

    Dick, addressing the troops: "We're all in the same yacht -- er, boat."
