I am desperate for help, and believe only your assistance can save me from this horrible mess. Indeed, it may be that even you cannot save me - that I am entirely done for - but I'm pleading for your help because I don't know where else to turn. The trouble all began - although I didn't know it then - about five years ago when my company hired Jack Phaze. Jack turned out to be a real toady, always sucking up to the com- pany owner, Mabel Sabbling, and sneering at the rest of us. You never met a guy less willing to do an honest day's work, or more willing to take credit for work done by others. It wasn't long before most of us called him "Jerk Face" behind his back. I guess I should explain what our company does. The Growing Mature Arboreal Tree com- pany (or as it is popularly known, GMA Tree) cultivates exotic trees for use in bird sanctuaries and movie sets. As you can imagine, there's very little demand for this kind of thing, so we have a small business with few competitors. If I lose this job where I've worked all my life, there's nowhere else I can go. I know exotic trees - that's all! About a year ago, Jack was promoted to working directly beneath me, to my great chagrin. The morale of all the people in my group plummeted, absenteeism swelled, and I'm sure it was all because of how miserable it is to work with Jack. My employees confirmed my suspicions: Jack never did what he was supposed to, and everyone else ended up covering for him to get the project done. Then, after they'd covered his rear end, he'd mock them for how hard they worked. This was unacceptable, and I told them, "If I have anything to do with it, Jerk Face is out of here." Wouldn't you know it, right at that moment he walked around the corner. I could tell he'd heard me by the look on his face. We've been out for each other's blood ever since. I had a harder time trying to get rid of him than you might imagine. It turns out Jack has an uncle in the bird sanctuary business (clearly the secret of his longevity in our company). Shortly after the "Jerk Face" incident, I had a meeting with a herbicide specialist set up by owner Sabbling. Edgar (I don't remember his last name) said we could build a greenhouse for $2,222 to protect trees from insects and disease. He showed me a bunch of additional figures, enough to convince me. Then, just two days after I signed the contract, Edgar told me he'd been hired by a bird sanctuary and was being sent to Costa Rica. I haven't been able to get his new contact information, so I can no longer ask for his help (I smell Jack behind all this!)
