I did a little research and found out that it is true. October 16 is officially National Boss Day. NBD has traditionally been a day for employees to thank their superior for being kind and fair throughout the year. But did anyone call yesterday?
No way, Jose.
And it certainly wasn't because Jack isn't kind and fair.
See? He even has a mug with his official, self-assigned title.
According to Wikipedia, National Boss's Day is usually celebrated by presenting one's boss with a small gift or greeting card. It is also customary to treat one's boss with extreme kindness, very similar to a birthday.
So, in honor of NBD, since Jack didn't get any presents yesterday, in lieu of a gift, I thought I would pay homage to him here.
A Poem. By Emily Redwood
Price gouge, price gouge, price gouge: forever our motto
Cause we need our money too, unless we hit the lotto
Jack needs three tabs like he needs scratch
When it comes to Wheeler or Crabtree, Jack wins game, set match.
All the other roofers are haters, fakers, amateurs
Jack can slip you a shingle a lot better, that's for sures.
When asked for his expert opinion, he says with a straight face
I don't care it's only 5 years old, this roof must be replaced.
If I were a gambling (wo)man, I'd bet on Jack any day
He's the man with the roofing plan. Happy NB Day.
Also, this:
Thanks mom, for the mugs.

you are, without a doubt, a poetic genious.
I know that your poem made up for the lack of gifts/cards/phone calls from his employees.
You are cute.
