The Office

Do you remember that one episode from The Office? The episode where the senior vice president walks into the main office in Denver and announces a consolidation of 3 offices in the United States? Denver is one of them. The VP then proceeds to let everyone know that the General Manager and the entire accounting staff had been let go. There was no prior knowledge. He flew in on the private jet, dropped the bomb and waited while they turned off their computers and left the office. The Denver side of the mountain will be merged with Minneapolis and the other side of the Rocky Mountains will be merged with Phoenix. There were no other operational changes or layoffs at this time, the VP says as he lets everyone off the conference call. Do you remember that episode? You don’t. That’s funny because I remember it like IT HAPPENED YESTURDAY.
