Ever since the GST hike (1st July 2007), we’re all getting many dollarspoorer. I’m sure the increase in GST has affected many of our lives. An example will be the ice-cream cone at MacDonald’s which costs $0.60 now (was $0.50). Another example would be my MaxOnline bill increasing from $58.80 to close to $60.

That’s why we need to ask for a pay hike!

One day an employee sends a letter to her boss asking for an increase in her salary!!!

Dear Marian

I kNOw you have been working very hard. NOwadays, NOthing much has changed. You must have NOticed that our company is NOt doing NOticeably well as yet. NOw the newspaper are saying the world’s leading ecoNOmists are NOt sure if the United States may go into aNOther recession. After the NOvember presidential elections things may turn bad.

I have NOthing more to add NOw. You kNOw what I mean.

Yours truly,
The Manager
