* We're back. This week we feature a fake newsletter from a variety store
manager to his employees. Sit back and take a look.
Korner Variety Monthly Newsletter
By Neil Pasricha
Volume III, Issue VII
Finely compiled, edited, printed, and distributed by Paul Shemp, Korner
Variety Manager
Greetings Korner Variety part-time and full-time employees and welcome to
the 31st issue of the Korner Variety Monthly Newsletter. As always, this
edition comes to you hot off our self-serve photocopier by the freezer and
folded into your pay check envelope with a Scratch 'N' Score ticket. And
now, the news!
Magazine Sign Upgrade
Our current magazine rack sign is in desperate need of repair. The
current "Buy don't read the magazines. Not the library!" sign has grown
sun-soaked to the point where the black lettering has faded into an
embarrassing dull brown. Also, the corners are dog-eared, the Scotch tape
holding the sign to the TV Guide rack is slipping, and someone has
written "you're magazines suck!!!" on the sign in red pen. For our new
sign I was thinking that we could go with "Do you see shelves of books and
librarians here? No? That's because this isn't a library so please
purchase your magazine before reading it!" I thought this new "added-
detail" message might hit home with more people. Andrew, please make this
sign on your new computer before you head off to college. I've left a CD
of clipart labeled "Paul's Personal Pics" for you under the counter and I
recommend using the one of that duck in a business suit swinging the ball
peen hammer at his computer. Please have the proofs ready for my approval
by close of business Sunday.
