>
> 1 Bob Smith, my assistant programmer, can always be found
> 2 hard at work in his cubicle. Bob works independently, without
> 3 wasting company time talking to colleagues. Bob never
> 4 thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always
> 5 finishes given assignments on time. Often he takes extended
> 6 measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee
> 7 breaks. Bob is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no
> 8 vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound
> 9 knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Bob can be
> 10 classed as a high-caliber employee, the type which cannot be
> 11 dispensed with. Consequently, I duly recommend that Bob be
> 12 promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be
> 13 executed as soon as possible.
>
> Addendum:
>
> That idiot was standing over my shoulder while I wrote the report sent
> to you earlier today. Kindly re-read only the odd numbered lines.
