So I got myself a cup of coffee and thought to myself, “Oh well, she just forgot.” The kids will be down in a few minutes all cheery, and they will sing Happy Birthday and have a nice gift for me.
So I showered and shaved, knowing when I went down to breakfast my wife would greet me with a big kiss and say “Happy birthday, dear.”Īll smiles, I went into breakfast and there sat my wife reading the newspaper as usual. I woke up feeling a little depressed because it was my birthday and I thought, “another year older,” but decided to make the best of it. The voice from behind the door in a sweet tone said, “Come in.” A twist of the doorknob and the door swung open - only to find the rest of the office force singing “HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!” After a short time she said: “I’m going to my bedroom, honey, and you can come in five minutes.” After five minutes were up the boss disrobed. The night of his birthday they went to her apartment and had cocktails, appetizers, dinner, and some drinks. To himself, as any other normal man would have commented, “Better than I planned.” The next day she consented to go, but offered they go to her apartment. She said she would have to think about it.
He approached her and asked if she would like to celebrate his birthday with him at some secluded night spot. After looking at her for a few weeks, the boss, a married man, decided that he was going to take her out some night.
The boss of a medium-sized office hired a steno who was out of this world.
