“Jamie would like to let you all know that his work here is done. He received a call, a sort of an offer you can’t refuse, for an appointment from which he from which he will not be returning. This assignment comes with a huge sign on bonus, a reunion with family and friends he has not seen in a long time. Job security is exactly 110 percent. His new mission takes him to a wonderful place where he will be socializing, dancing, singing, playing the drums and throwing a football. Music, laughter and love are guaranteed.
