In mid-January I will be travelling much less to Paris. I negotiated my way out using an "aging parents" story. See, both of you are getting old and forgetful and crazy in your old age, so I need to be back in NY to assist you. Worked like a charm. I will continue to work on the project, just from NY rather than from Paris. I did tell them I would come over for a few weeks every couple of months (just to build up frequent flyer miles, of course.)
If there is a Hell, I will be going straight there some day. Best part about it? I had my boss call them and use the story (by the way, he's in on it - the story, that is.)

Glad to be of service, I think. But "a few weeks every couple of months" sounds like what you're doing now. I guess I am getting confused in my dotage....
Ummm no Sal, the way it works now is I get to go HOME a few weeks every couple of months....
Second time I've been used in a BS story. I expect some remuneration.
What second time? What was the first time?
When you allegedly spent your year off helping me with accounting at the nursery.
Oh yeah!! That was a good one too. I would give that one a B+. This current one I would give an A. It was crafted slowly over time and nurtured. And the best part - it was anti-French, the know-it-all geniuses on the planet.
