From One American Overlord to Another

There's been a lot of instability with the jobs of overlords in northern Africa and the Middle East recently. However, the jobs of our American overlords at FluxCorp remain strong and stable. One visited us last week -- our director. Today, another one will be visiting our alien outpost -- our manager. This visit is supposed to be part of an annual ritual whereby we are subjected to the last and final step in our yearly performance review, the personal feedback from management. His previous visit was two years ago. He was unable to make it last year due to family reasons, that's why he's going to make up for it by staying a whole week. Woohoo! An extra week of meetings. I can't wait. In fact, I'm preparing my sucking up techniques as I type. *pucker*
