Oh Boy! Tickets Go on Sale soon!!!!
From our intranet (names xxx'd to protect the guilty):
Starting next week, xxxxxx and xxxxxx will be selling raffle tickets for a chance to have lunch with [CEO] and drive the Beemer. What fun! Two employees will visit with [CEO] on March 30, 2004. [CEO] will pick the lunch spot. Tickets are $1.00 for 3 or $5.00 for a whole bunch.
--------- I hope this is the low point in my "professional" development.

What does the money go to?
I'm genuinely curious.

What are you saying here --
-- from these bits: Starting next week, xxxxxx and xxxxxx will be selling raffle tickets
[ . . . ]
I hope this is the low point in my "professional" development. ...it kind of looks as if "I hope this is the low point" is because one of the rows of x-es stands for "Mike Moffitt"? If so, I can only commiserate.

Thank you for pointing out that it could be worse!
I hadn't even considered the possibility of actually having to try to sell the tickets. I feel better already.
