Business was terrible and not picking up. I had to fire somebody, and I narrowed it down to one of two people, Debra or Jack.

It was an impossible decision because they were both super workers.

Rather than flip a coin, I decided I would fire the first one who used the water cooler the next morning.

Debra came in the next morning with a horrible hangover after partying all night. She went to the cooler to take an aspirin.

I approached her and said, "Debra, I've never done this before but I have to either lay you or Jack off."

"Could you jack off for now?" she says. "I feel like shit. If you can wait, I'll do you at lunchtime."........I had to let Jack go. Bosses have to make the tough decisions!
