After what can only be described as an overwhelming response to Wednesday's e-mail exchange post, I decided to show the creativity of a manufactured pop-star, and just do it again.
The topic of today's exchange was a lunch reservation that CoCo made for the JTC Board and our graphophobic stenographer for February 27th.
One thing to note here: between my apparent disdain evident below for this "culture differences" workshop, and Wednesday's comment about migrant farm workers, the thought occurs that I may be starting to look like a big, big racist. Rest assured that I love everyone from all backgrounds and ethnicities. Except for the fucking Dutch.
On with the show:

Dude! On Friday, February 27th, we’re in that fucking “cultural differences” workshop until noon. Looks like we’ll have to leave for an important meeting around 11:20…
Sit near the door,
Johnny M

Dude! I totally saw that before I booked and thought “The restaurant only has 11:30 available, eh? Well, I really want to go to lunch on Friday at 11:30, but that would conflict with the last half hour of a cultural differences workshop. What should I do?”
It was a really tough decision. Really tough.
Yeah – we both have an 11:30 meeting if for some reason we can’t just get up and leave without needing to say anything.

I can’t believe you just arbitrarily decided that I was going to miss the last 30 minutes of what will likely be a terrific workshop without even asking me!
Great decision,
Johnny M

In a fast-paced business like JTC, we need quick and decisive action or we simply won’t be competitive.
We also need some fucking blog posts,

Competitive with who?,

Right – of course. Two minor follow-up questions:
1) What business is that?
2) Who else is in it?

1) The business we work towards every day with the expert staff at JTC.
2) All of JTC’s competitors.

Sit near the door. Most important meeting rule ever!
Dude, I ordered a JTC thong from the "Thongs & Things: Official JTC Apparel Store" and it hasn't even come yet. This is bullshit!
Your friend, Quinton.
Dear Quinton,
We here at JTC appreciate your interest in our high-quality thongs. I've checked our sales reports, and nothing has been ordered from the store in the previous 3 months. Uh...I mean, despite our heavy sales volumes, I've personally checked everything and there is no record of your order. Let me know if you want me to look into it further. I personally ordered some stuff, and that handsome mug that everyone should have came without a hitch...
Yours in eCommerce,
JohnnyM
