I came across this story and I normally don't even read this stuff, but I have to say this has a good ending. I think most of us men can absolutely relate to this: Read on and read through to the end-
Why I fired my Secretary
Two weeks ago when it was my 56th birthday and I wasn't feeling too good
that morning. I went down to breakfast knowing my wife would be pleasant
and say, 'Happy Birthday!", and probably have a present for me. As it
turned out, she didn't even say good morning, let alone any happy birthday.
I thought, well, that's wives for you, the children will remember. The
children came in to breakfast and didn't say a word. So when I left for the
office, I was feeling pretty low and despondent.
As I walked into my office, my secretary Janet said, "Good morning, Boss.
Happy Birthday". And I felt a little better that someone had remembered. I
worked until noon, then Janet knocked on my door and said, you know, it's
such a beautiful day outside, and it's your birthday, let's go to Lunch,
just you and me." I said, "By George, that's the greatest thing I've heard
all day. Let's go!"
We went to lunch. We didn't go where we normally go; instead we went out to
a private little place. We had two martinis and enjoyed lunch tremendously.
On the way back to the office, she said, "You know, it's such a beautiful
day. We don't need to go back to the office, do we?" I said, "No, I guess
not.? She said, "Let's go to my apartment."
After arriving at her apartment she said, "Boss, if you don't mind, I think
I'll go into the bedroom and slip into something more comfortable". "Sure!"
I excitedly replied. She went into the bedroom and, in about six minutes,
she came out carrying a huge birthday cake -----followed by my wife,
children, and dozens of our friends, all singing Happy Birthday.
And I just sat there ----
On the couch ----
Naked.
