THE BOSS ASKED FOR A LETTER DESCRIBING Rob SMITH:
Rob Smith, my assistant programmer, can always be found
hard at work in his cubicle. Rob works independently, without
wasting company time talking to colleagues. Rob never
thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always
finishes given assignments on time. Often Rob takes extended
measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee
breaks. Rob is an individual who has absolutely no
vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound
knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Rob can be
classed as a high-caliber employee, the type which cannot be
dispensed with. Consequently, I duly recommend that Rob be
promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be
executed as soon as possible.

A MEMO WAS SOON SENT FOLLOWING THE LETTER:
That idiot was reading over my shoulder while I wrote the
report sent to you earlier today. Kindly read only the odd
numbered lines (1, 3, 5, ...) for my true assessment of him.
Regards -
