I'd fire someone so fast it would make their head swim if they asked for that day off......just a warning for anyone reading this.

He's trying to get everybody used to the way its going to be, because with him in charge nobody will be working and there won't be any wealth to spread.

It looks like some election fliers are out saying take the day off, too.

Va. officials investigate bogus election flier

HAMPTON, Va (MyFox Hampton Roads) -- Virginia State Police are investigating a bogus flier that has the Virginia State Board of Elections heading and a Virginia Seal.
The flier states an "Emergency session of the General Assembly has adopted the following emergency regulations to ease the load." The flier claimed that because of an expected high voter turnout, Republicans will vote on November 4, and Democrats will vote November 5.

How about a little comp for lost wages???

Notice to All Employees

As of November 5, 2008, when President Obama is officially elected into office, our company will instill a few new policies which are in keeping with his new, inspiring issues of change and fairness:

1. All salespeople will be pooling their sales and bonuses into a
common pool that will be divided equally between all of you. This will serve to give those of you who are underachieving a “fair shake.”

2. All low level workers will be pooling their wages, including overtime,
into a common pool, dividing it equally amongst yourselves. This will help those who are “too busy for overtime” to reap the rewards from those who have more spare time and can work extra hours.

3. All top management will now be referred to as “the government.”
We will not participate in this “pooling” experience because the law
doesn't apply to us.

4. The “government” will give eloquent speeches to all employees
every week, encouraging it's workers to continue to work hard “for the good of all.”

5. The employees will be thrilled with these new policies because it's “good to spread the wealth.” Those of you who have underachieved
will finally get an opportunity; those of you who have worked hard and had success will feel more “patriotic.”

6. The last few people who were hired should clean out their desks. Don't feel bad, though, because President Obama will give you free healthcare, free handouts, free oil for heating your home, free foodstamps, and he'll let you stay in your home for as long as you want even if you can't pay your mortgage. If you appeal directly to our democratic congress, you might even get a free flatscreen TV and a coupon for free haircuts (shouldn't all Americans be entitled to nice looking hair?).

If for any reason you are not happy with the new policies, you may want to rethink your vote on November 4th.

P.S. On November 4th, don’t even think about making up an excuse for missing work.
