Joke Letters

Promoting Inter-Office Mayhem

Once upon a time, long ago in the age of dinosaurs and PC Jr. chicklet keyboards, I used to collect various fake office memos and joke letters. When fax machines became The Next Big Thing I swore I was going to sell these in a book. If it wasn't for Federal Express' ZapMail I would have succeed... oh wait... crap!

Each letter includes a personalization feature so you, too, can be a hit at the water cooler.

One old semi-joke letter I remember seeing my father read in 1966 was an employee comparison chart. The chart had three columns with the victim's name at the top of one column, someone else in the middle, and then Jesus. I remember one of the rows had notations like "Talks to God | Talks to Self | Argues with Self and Looses." Ring a bell?
