Day 272

Hi Everyone:

I would like to take a small group to lunch on Thursday to brainstorm some miscellaneous topics regarding our biz – if interested please be one of first six to respond.

Thanks,
[From our CEO]

I'd rather have my wisdom teeth out again. A mouth full of blood would be easier to swallow than your koolaid pal. After not responding at all to this email, I had the pleasure of going to the elevator at the exact same time the chosen 6 and our CEO embarked on their super special lunch date. In fact, even after I said, go ahead, I'll catch the next one, they were nice enough to insist I join them in the already cramped elevator. In the very middle. That was the longest 25 seconds of my life.
