    Another rerun, but still funny ā€” and SO typical of the Pennys!

    I dunno what heā€™s tryna do thereā€¦ I mean, Verl oughta write her own letters so the boss kin see how good she does it.

    But you know Burlā€¦ always gotta be a big shot.Ever since he bought that Foniks course, he thinks heā€™s Bill Shakespeare..

    @ Mikie2So glad to hear your wife is safe after that grueling surgery. Every day a little bit better. I have added her to my prayer chain. Good thoughts your wayā€¦.

    Fonix wrks fr me to.

    I donā€™t think Verl will get that promotion either.Burl and Joy are the last ones Iā€™ll ask help for anything especially an important letter like that.

    Promotion has 3 syllables I wonder if they included it in the letter. Itā€™ll be hard , but I guess they didnā€™t.Iā€™m just wondering what Verlā€™s jjob is anyway?

    I havenā€™t been reading DS as long as you folks so this isnā€™t a rerun for me. I havenā€™t seen the same one twice yet.

    I do like the company also, the comments helps make sense sometimes when the Pennys donā€™t.

    Burl has the distinkt advantage of noing how a boss thinks, very helpful in undercutting his possible response to a letter and being prepared for litltigation in the event of a unjust firing..Thinking about possible content, A letter to the boss using the word ā€˜gonnaā€™ suggests there is a threat. Could it be a sexual harassment issueā€¦ā€¦..barf! No that would be Verlā€™s dream come true, maybe it is lack of harassment no matter her effort and provocative attire..

    Yes I read Mikieā€™s post before coming here. Glad it went well and hope that you both get some sleep and the pain does not continue for her. Growing old is a B*****!

    Iā€™ll be taking a Multifunction Cardiogram tomorrow at my doctorā€™s (because he wants to give me more reasons to worry- mostly wants me to permanently give up meat and alcohol) I hope the test proves him wrong because I have NO intention of changing.

    I AM an omnivore and have no wish/intention to change (Iā€™ll die eventually anyway and Iā€™ll enjoy life while Iā€™m here).

    Burl as a proofreader will work out as well as my late Uncle ā€œShakyā€ Bob did at the nitroglycerin factory.

    Burl is proofreading Verlas cover letter? What does the Bible say about the blind leading the blind?
