From:   Mr. Pink

To:       Mr. Blue

Subject: I'm really getting pissed

Dan, I couldn't sleep last night because of this Mr. Pink business. What the heck is wrong with that weasel, having to give me Mr. Pink? He gives himself Gold and he has to give me Pink? This is really pissing me off, and I'm not going to take it. I can't. I'm sorry Dan, but you have to get me a different name or I'm out.

On another subject - did you hear that Vixox Systems is moving another 40 jobs to Bangalore? By the time they're done, there'll be no software development left here. Another year and they'll be shutting down the local offices. Thank you very much, outsourcing!!

Let me know about the name.

One more thing. This happened a couple of days ago and has really been bugging me. I went to a new Cambodian restaurant in Lowell, and was just being polite to the girl working there. When I asked her to guess my age, she flipped out. Next thing I know the manager's running over to me telling me never show my face there again. Jeeze, Dan, I only asked her to guess my age because I'm trimming some years off my resume and wanted an unbiased opinion - I wasn't hitting on her or anything. What do you think I should do??
