“Crap.” I thought to myself, looking at the blank page in Microsoft Word. The annual report was due in 5 minutes and I hadn’t even started it yet. I glanced over at the picture of my wife and kids on my desk and started to wonder how I was going to pay for my son’s operation.

The clock on my computer struck 12 and I heard the door to my bosses office swing open. My heart raced as the clops of his hooves drew nearer to my cubicle. I soon saw a brown horse head with a white mark on it’s forehead peering over the cubicle wall, looking at my computer screen.

“Absolutely nothing, NOTHING” he shouted.

“S-sir. I can explain. I was confused. I’ve never done one of these before. I was just promoted from the mail room a week ago.”

“You Don t Have To Be A Nobel Prize Winner To Create HOT Information Products!” he responded angrily. “But many people have great ideas and want to write about them. Most people never will.”

He looked back at me disapprovingly. “It s really over .”

“But, what about my wife! My sick son!”

“A new beginning for everyone.”

I began to sound desperate. “But I was also the top salesman this month!”

“Your Sales Skills are meaningless” he replied. “I will tell you a true story. If you believe me you will be well rewarded. If you don t believe me,”

He shook his long, luxurious mane. “I noticed that my hair grew faster from spending time in my pyramid.”

Thats when it hit me. This whole company was a scam. “Wait. Thats why you keep trying to get me to get more people to work here and sell things. This is a pyramid scheme! Well you know what? I QUIT!” I slammed my fist on the table and grabbed my few possessions on my desk.

As I walked out the door, I could hear my boss begin to shout desperately.

“PYRAMID ENERGY IS REAL - IT S SACRED SCIENCE! JUST LIKE THE COMPUTER,”
