"You'd never bloody know it girl, sounds like he loves that bloody platty and subby more than his wife, the way he keeps banging on about them."

"I don't know...only thing I think he loves is bloody cleavage. Christmas Party two years ago, when he weren't looking at his bloody watch and mumbling about lume whatever the heck that is, he was staring at me kiwis and saying about taking em to the bank!"

"I have a plan, when he comes over to the race, just give him a watch book and we'll get shot of him."

"Good plan, keep your blouse buttoned up and your wrists clear. Don't give him any excuse the lecherous old perv'!"

"You can count on it. Now, I'd better get back to work. I have to make arrangements for the special guest race starter."

"Who is he?"

"Some old boy from the US called Joe, he's flying over especially!"

"Ah American, at least he won't be an old perv like that loony bald fella!"

"Yeah thank God, now where's his email, that's it R-E-D-S-H-I-R-T - @..."

Must be a great company to work for, all too often personal sacrifice and achievement go unnoticed as the CEO relaxes at the races, great post JJ, good to see that there are caring employers in the world, hope you have a wonderful day.

Thanks, Dave. Yes, Smith & Smith are very appreciative of their staff and employees. We are taken good care of. I've been with them almost 2 years now - in fact, coming up to 2 years this June.
