Work is a Virus

My father sent me this email and I thought it was pretty funny. I don't know the origin to give credit...

"Subject: There is a new virus circulating

There is a new virus circulating. It is called "WORK."

If you receive WORK from your colleagues, your boss, or from anyone else, do not touch it under any circumstances. This virus wipes out your personal life completely.

If you should happen to come in contact with this virus, take two friends and go straight to the nearest bar. Order drinks immediately and after three rounds, you will find that WORK has been completely deleted from your brain.

If you don't drink, check out the Dairy Queen Hot Fudge Brownie Supreme!

Chocolate is a good substitute! Forward this virus warning immediately to at least five friends.

Should you realize you do not have five friends, this means you are allready infected by this virus and WORK already controls your life. If this is the case, go to the nearest bar and stay until you make at least five friends.

I think I have five friends, but I am not entirely positive, so I'm headed for the bar anyway...it never hurts to be safe."

Clever....

Doctor Lisa,

I've had this virus since I was 16. What do I take for it? I can't seem to get rid of it without causing problems for my family and financial well-being. I know there were other alternative healing resources such as inheritance or lottery to look at, but nothing seems to take care of my problem. Any ideas?

Skip: Yes, I know what you mean....I think our only hope is to create the next pet rock. Or if we want to follow a slightly more slimy route, we could write a book and have an infomercial about how to invent the next pet rock.

Or we could just be really clever, like Paul Hartunian, the only guy to figure out how to sell the Brooklyn Bridge. He made a mint because we was observant and a good PR guy.

That's it then, we need to be clever and an outstanding PR person (or partner with one).
