Memo To God II

Date: April 11, 2008
To: God
From: Universal Life Force and Energies
Subject: Seattle Weather

Studies have shown that disciplinary action can be quite motivating, and clearly God and your subsidiaries are responding well. We would like to acknowledge the progress that you and your team are making since our memo dated April 8, 2008.

Experts agree that the steady stream of sunlight has been much appreciated by not only your direct report, Linda S. Silberman, but to the millions of inhabitants of the Metro-Seattle Area. There have been reports of "jaunty" steps from Fremont to Capitol Hill to Bellvue to Edmonds. There have even been reports that the Tacoma Aroma has subsided due to sunlight! While these reports are not yet confirmed, we take this as an excellent sign.

We are concerned, however, about the recent retaliation practices from one of your many direct reports (the IRS) towards your supervisor, Linda S. Silberman. Was it necessary for you to issue a third IRS audit towards your supervisor? Was this the best timing for this? Are you aware of the repercussions following your actions?

As always, we will not micro-manage you, but keep in mind that we are watching. While this memo is not disciplinary action, you are on notice.
