A Good Cause

Subject: A good cause

Dear kind-hearted friend…

Now that the holiday season has passed, please look into your heart to help those in need. General Motors executives in our very own country are living at or just below the seven-figure salary level… right here in the land of plenty. And, as if that weren’t bad enough, they will be deprived of it as a result of the bankruptcy and current SEC investigation.

But now, you can help! For only $20,835 a month, about $694.50 a day (that’s less than the cost of a large screen projection TV) you can help an General Motors executive remain economically viable during his time of need. This contribution by no means solves the problem, as it barely covers their per diem… but it’s a start! Almost $700 may not seem like a lot of money to you, but to an General Motors exec it could mean the difference between a vacation spent sucking ass in DC, golfing in Florida or a Mediterranean cruise. For you, seven hundred dollars is nothing more than rent, a car note or mortgage payments. But to an General Motors executive $700 will almost replace his per diem.

Your commitment of less than $700 a day will enable an General Motors exec to buy that home entertainment center, trade in the year-old Lexus for a new Ferrari, or enjoy a weekend in Rio. HOW WILL I KNOW I’M HELPING? Each month, you will receive a complete financial report on the exec you sponsor. Detailed information about his stocks, bonds, 401(k), real estate, and other investment holdings will be mailed to your home. You’ll also get information on how he plans to invest his golden parachute. Imagine the joy as you watch your executive’s portfolio double or triple!

Plus upon signing up for this program, you will receive a photo of the exec (unsigned-for a signed photo, please include an additional $50.00). Put the photo on your refrigerator to remind you of other peoples’ suffering. HOW WILL HE KNOW I’M HELPING? Your General Motors exec will be told that he has a SPECIAL FRIEND who just wants to help in a time of need. Although the exec won’t know your name, he will be able to make collect calls to your home via a special operator just in case additional funds are needed for unexpected expenses.

YES, I WANT TO HELP! I would like to sponsor an General Motors executive. My preference is checked below:

  • [ ] Mid-level Manager
    [ ] Director
    [ ] Vice President (Higher cost; please specify which dept)
    [ ] President (Even higher cost; please specify which department)
    [ ] CEO (Contribution: Average General Motors janitor monthly salary x 700)
    [ ] Entire Company
    [ ] I’ll sponsor an Exec most in need. Please select one for me.

Please charge the account listed below ___________ per day and send me a picture of the General Motors executive I have sponsored, along with my very own General Motors “Keep America Strong Sponsor an General Motors Exec: Ask Me How!” t-shirt to wear proudly.

Mail completed form to “The Invisible Hand” or call 1-900-2MUCH now to enroll by phone. Note: Sponsors are not permitted to contact the executive they have sponsored, either in person or by other means including, but not limited to, telephone calls, letters, email or third parties. Keep in mind that the executive you have sponsored will be much too busy enjoying his free time, thanks to your generous donations. Contributions are not tax-deductible.

___ You failed the 20 Question Rule, i.e., I asked you 20 questions about yourself before you asked me one.

___ Your “Putting on a few, aren’t you big boy?” comment, given the 9 months pregnant size of your beer gut, was inappropriate.

Next time your application for a job is rejected…

Dear [Interviewer’s Name]:

Thank you for your letter of [Date of Interview]. After careful consideration I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me employment with your firm. This year I have had been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually large number of rejection letters.

Best of luck in rejecting future candidates.
