The Centre for Disease Control has issued a medical alert about a highly contagious, potentially dangerous virus that is transmitted orally, by hand, and even electronically. This virus is called Weary Overload Recreational Killer (WORK).
If you receive WORK from your boss, any of your colleagues, or anyone else via any means whatsoever – DO NOT TOUCH IT. This virus will wipe out your private life completely.
If you should come into contact with WORK you should immediately leave the premises. Take two good friends to the nearest grocery store and purchase one or both of the antidotes – Work Isolating Neutralizer Extract (WINE) and Bothersome Employer Elimination Rebooter (BEER).
Take the antidote repeatedly until WORK has been completely eliminated from your system. You should immediately forward this medical alert to five friends. If you do not have five friends, you have already been infected and WORK is controlling your life. Trusting you will do the right thing.
P.S. If you have developed immunity from WINE and BEER, then as a last resort, take a VACATION (Viral Antidote for Contagious Anxiety- Taxing Incessant Overwork Neurosis) for 2 weeks.
Cheers comrades

I prefer Glenmorangie and a Montecristo personally.
Yes Elijah some diseases are certainly curable with different prescriptions
Iain,
W.I.N.E., B.E.E.R, and V.A.C.A.T.I.O.N’s are suggested as short term therapies, PANIC, SHOCK, HORROR
WHAT IS THE SUGGESTED LONG TERM SOLUTION ?????
Don’t rightly know David but the aphorism that “work is the curse of the drinking classes” springs to mind for no particular reason and not because it is at all relevant.
For nothing Iain ?
there’s that most famous line from Dean Martin ?
“I would hate to be a non drinker, knowing, that waking up every morning, that was the best I was going to feel all day ?”
Or how about this oldie?
“Better a bottle in front of me than frontal lobotomy”
Or Winston Churchill’s famous retort when a woman accused him of being drunk(I paraphrase)
” I may be drunk tonight madam but in the morning I shall be sober. You on the other hand are ugly and there is no chance of an improvement in the morning”
From Gomer Pyle ????
“Aw, you’ll go straight to hell for that one !!!”
can you fix the rofl icon ? ;lol; isn’t it ?
(No its : lol : without the spaces, Iain)
tah
need my glasses, groan
Yeah I know exactly how you fell David give me a pill bottle with small print on it and I’m in deep trouble especially if it is night time.
Nice one Iain got a laugh. I have sent to a few over worked friends who also got a laugh.
Seems rightards can have a sense of humour on occasion!
glad that I cheered you up Comrade Craigy
