The boss is finally old enough to retire from the company.<>
On his last day of work, he ordered a farewell party for himself.<>
The boss wanted everyone to express their good feeling about him by writing on the farewell card,<>
So later he could remember how his staff “miss” him.<>
Most people are writing standard phrases like,<>
“Without you, the company will never be the same,”<>
“We will always remember you,” etc.<>
Obviously the boss was not satisfied.<>
“I need something from the bottom of your heart, something really touching, you know.<>
Okay, John, you have been working with me for the last 20 years.<>
You are my best staff.<>
I am retiring now. What do you have to say?”<>
Slowly but firmly, John wrote, “THE BEST NEWS IN 20 YEARS.”<>
