It was a letter inviting him to a meeting with his manager to discuss his absenteeism and persistent lateness for work. Stapled to the letter was a computer print-out of all the dates he missed or was late, together with the excuse he had supplied. I felt sorry for both sides - for the company (a well-known retail outlet) having to go through all this rigmarole and for the employee, who clearly hated his job. The book, by the way, was a biography of Primo Levi. I occasionally wonder about the outcome of the meeting. I enjoyed his excuses, I must say.Marynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526736757651414061.post-63962754233828691162014-08-01T12:31:43.212+01:002014-08-01T12:31:43.212+01:00Yes, it's an old Tommy Cooper gag.
