One Is Never Safe In the Corporate Ghetto
Today Boss rounded a corner and spilled almost the entirety of his morning coffee on the publicity assistant who was, of course, wearing white. Boss looked as though he was going to apologize but was momentarily (and understandably) distracted by the assistant's green bra showing through her wet shirt. CEO, who had accompanied Boss around the fateful corner, jumped in between the two before apologies could be made.
"Boss," CEO exclaimed worriedly. "Are you okay?"
"Yes, yes," Boss said somewhat bashfully. "I'm fine." Boss, thankfully, had somehow protected his Brooks Brothers shirt in the collision and was, indeed, fine.
CEO clapped him on the shoulder and the two continued making their way down the hallway, the drenched publicity assistant forgotten, just another casualty of corporate life. These streets are dangerous.

Oh my God! He didn't apologize to publicity assistant?!?
Boss is an ass. CEO is equally so.
Are you sure you like this gig, CB?
At least you won't cry if (when?) you get fired...after experiencing enough dilbertdom, I exited the corporate world...permanently I hope...
How does one get to be such an asshole? Really? Are there special courses?
Well let's face it, boss and ceo are important folks. They need to look there best at all times.
Frickin assholes!
That's a darn shame
What goes around comes around. Believe it. "Publicity Assistant" may not be privy to giving it to CEO -- but one of my life's biggest lessons is that bad deeds return to us, one way or another (and good deeds done return to us two-fold or more).
I didn't think they still made buffoons like your CEO. These days, more and more managers who have their eyes on the top jobs realize that *people* are the most important resource a company has. IMHO, CEO ain't gonna last long.
That's awful! I bet she cried herself to sleep
are boss and ceo gay? how can they not notice a girl with a wet white blouse and green bra without reacting? i hate my boss and your boss too, but at least your boss does something stupid and funny. my boss is just an asshole who cant keep his penis in his pants.
Did YOU do anything for Publicity Assistant or did you just laugh?
I would have laughed, then found a shirt for Publicity Assistant if I had to take it off my own back. Or at least a sweater from my locker....
A chance like this to get a person on my side doesn't come by every day!
Oh and why the laugh? Well, humour is always a good response when shit happens, and I would make sure the laugh was on the CEO....
EWWW...
RUDEY!
How rude. I hope publicity assistant charges the cleaning to the company.
Hell is full of CEOs.
Definately RUDE!!
that's what she gets for wearing coloured bra with a white shirt, that combo gon' get you shot!
Thank God nothing happened to the Brooks Brother shirt. The publicity assistant should learn to be more careful.
