<span style="color: #ff0000;">Hi Kyle,<br />
Usually that is the case, as per your contract. However please note that leave during these occasions is only granted for genuine medical reasons. You line manager has determined that your leave was not due to medical reasons and as such we cannot grant leave on this occasion.</span> <strong><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Friends</p>
<p>As we move closer to the end of another year I wanted to thank you for<br />
all the emails you have forwarded to me over the past year.</p>
<p>I must send a big thank you to whoever sent me the one about rat shit<br />
in the glue on envelopes, because I now have to use a wet sponge with<br />
every envelope that needs sealing.</p>
<p>Also, I now have to wipe the top of every can I open for the same<br />
reason.</p>
<p>I no longer have any savings because I gave it all to a sick girl who<br />
is about to die in the hospital for the 1,387,258th time. But that<br />
will change once I receive the $15,000 that Bill Gates and Microsoft<br />
are sending me for participating in their special email programs. Or<br />
from the senior bank clerk in Nigeria who wants me to split seven<br />
million dollars with me for pretending to be a long lost relative of a<br />
customer who died interstate.</p>
<p>And I need no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels<br />
looking out  for me.</p>
<p>I have learned that my prayers only get answered if I forward emails<br />
to seven friends and make a wish within five minutes.</p>
<p>I no longer drink Coca-Cola because it can remove toilet stains.</p>
<p>I no longer can buy petrol without taking a friend along to watch the<br />
car so a serial killer won't crawl in my back seat when I'm filling<br />
up.</p>
<p>I no longer go to shopping centres because someone will drug me with a<br />
food sample and rob me.</p>
<p>I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a<br />
number and then I'll get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica , Uganda ,<br />
Singapore and Uzbekistan .</p>
<p>I can't even pick up the five dollars I found dropped in the car park<br />
because it was probably put there by a crazed axe murderer waiting<br />
under my car to grab my leg.</p>
<p>If you don't send this email to at least 144,000 people in the next 10<br />
minutes, a large pelican with an acute case of diarrhoea will sit on<br />
your head and fleas from 12 camels will infest your back .</p>
<p>I know this because it actually happened to a friend of my next door<br />
neighbour's ex-mother-in-law's second husband's cousin's plumber - and<br />
it was on Good Morning Australia.</p>
<p>By the way.... did you know that a South American scientist has, after<br />
a lengthy study,  discovered that people with low IQs who don't have<br />
enough sex, always read their emails while holding the mouse.</p>
<p>Don't bother taking it off now, it's too late.</p>
<p>Regards,</p>
<p>Your friend</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A 98 year old woman in the UK wrote this to her bank.<br />
The bank manager thought it sufficiently amusing to have it published in<br />
the Times.<br />
Lets hope he also did the right thing by his customer.</p>
<p>Dear Sir,<br />
I am writing to thank you for bouncing my cheque with which I<br />
endeavoured to pay my plumber last month. By my calculations, three<br />
'nanoseconds' must have elapsed between his presenting the cheque and<br />
the arrival in my account of the funds needed to honour it. I refer, of<br />
course, to the automatic monthly deposit of my Pension, an arrangement,<br />
which, I admit, has been in place for only thirty eight years. You are<br />
to be commended for seizing that brief window of opportunity, and also<br />
for debiting my account £30 by way of penalty for the inconvenience<br />
caused to your bank.</p>
<p>My thankfulness springs from the manner in which this incident has<br />
caused me to rethink my errant financial ways. I noticed that whereas I<br />
personally attend to your telephone calls and letters, when I try to<br />
contact you, I am confronted by the impersonal, overcharging,<br />
pre-recorded, faceless entity which your bank has become. From now on,<br />
I, like you, choose only to deal with a flesh-and-blood person.</p>
<p>My mortgage and loan payments will therefore and hereafter no longer be<br />
automatic, but will arrive at your bank by cheque, addressed personally<br />
and confidentially to an employee at your bank whom you must nominate.<br />
Be aware that it is an offence under the Postal Act for any other person<br />
to open such an envelope. Please find attached an Application Contact<br />
Status which I require your chosen employee to complete. I am sorry it<br />
runs to eight pages, but in order that I know as much about him or her<br />
as your bank knows about me, there is no alternative. Please note that<br />
all copies of his or her medical history must be countersigned by a<br />
Solicitor, and the mandatory details of his/her financial situation<br />
(income, debts, assets and liabilities) must be accompanied by<br />
documented proof.</p>
<p>In due course, I will issue your employee with PIN number which he/she<br />
must quote in dealings with me. I regret that it cannot be shorter than<br />
28 digits but, again, I have modelled it on the number of button presses<br />
required of me to access my account balance on your phone bank service.<br />
As they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.</p>
<p>Let me level the playing field even further. When you call me, press<br />
buttons as follows:</p>
<p>1 - To make an appointment to see me.</p>
<p>2 - To query a missing payment.</p>
<p>3 - To transfer the call to my living room in case I am there.</p>
<p>4 - To transfer the call to my bedroom in case I am sleeping.</p>
<p>5 - To transfer the call to my toilet in case I am attending to nature.</p>
<p>6 - To transfer the call to my mobile phone if I am not at home.</p>
<p>7 - To leave a message on my computer (a password to access my computer<br />
is required. A password will be communicated to you at a later date to<br />
the Authorized Contact.)</p>
<p>8 - To return to the main menu and to listen to options 1 through to 8.</p>
<p>9 - To make a general complaint or inquiry, the contact will then be put<br />
on hold, pending the attention of my automated answering service. While<br />
this may, on occasion, involve a lengthy wait, uplifting music will play<br />
for the duration of the call.</p>
<p>Regrettably, but again following your example, I must also levy an<br />
establishment fee to cover the setting up of this new arrangement.</p>
<p>May I wish you a happy, if ever so slightly less prosperous, New Year.</p>
<p>Your Humble Client</p>
<p>(Remember: This was written by a 98 year old woman;<br />
DOESN'T SHE MAKE YOU PROUD!)</p>
