Tabs, the Chief Feline Festivities Coordinator of Tabs the Cat Industries LLC, insisted on doing his rounds this morning while wearing his latest corporate cat collar creation. His intention was to send a clear message to the employees that the holidays are coming, so everyone better meet their year-end gravy quotas.
Sure, this is a fun time of year, and Tabs likes doing the holiday party circuit as much as the next feline fashion mogul, but gravy futures are down this quarter. If the staff wants that new La Croix vending machine for the employee lounge, we gotta turn those numbers around.
To restate the obvious, green is his color, in case you haven’t noticed.
There will be no December slowdown at this office. In fact, Tabs expects every employee to work overtime all the way through New Years.
Everyone starts at 5 a.m. on the dot, except for the President and CFO (Chief Feline Officer), who saunters in at 11.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

Sounds harsh, but I trust Tabs knows what he is doing. His decisions might be hard, but probably the only way to turn thinks around. He surely only has the future of the company in mind.

Love the collar, Tabs. Very festive! I hope you get the vending machine you are dreaming of. Apropos of nothing, I just wanted to let you know that I went looking this weekend for the Urban Decay Urban Defense Complexion Primer, and found out from the good people at Ulta that apparently this has been discontinued!! It is out of stock for Ulta, Sephora stopped carrying it, and they told me it is no longer available on the UD website. I did, however, find it on the Macy’s website, for 15% off! I know this is one of your “Unsung Heroes” , so I thought you might want to stock up while you can.
Daphne B says
My apologies, I should have looked for myself at the Urban Decay website, because I just checked, and it is still on their site. I do not know why the sales rep at Ulta said it was not. I do wonder why Ulta has stopped carrying this primer though – the 2 Ultas I check did not even have a place for it anymore. Have you heard anything about this?

Green really is Tabs’ color. Let’s hope things turn around so staff can get a much-needed holiday break. Maybe if Connor comes in and says “God Bless Us, Everyone!”. 😉
Mitzi says
Gosh, Tabs knows how to work those accessories! Love that collar – it’s a beautiful and vivid contrast to his fur.
Hopefully he’ll let all the employees take a small break to enjoy the Christmas and New Year festivities. Especially in light of hosting those clientele (family) events! Those are always fun, but can be hectic trying to stay on top of everything.
Karen says
Hi Mitzi,
I’m hoping he’ll give us a little break, too. You know how it is having a cat for your boss though. They are so demanding!
Speaking of the kittehs, how is Marcus doing these days?
Mitzi says
Hi Karen,
Sorry for the delay in responding back! I didn’t get a notification that you had responded (probably my fault, I may have set up the settings for the website incorrectly!)
Marcus is looking forward to Catsmas. In fact, he’s been acting rather obvious about the things he’s expecting to get as presents. Stuff like more dental treats (salmon flavored), more cans of his favorite kitty food (man, he’s such a snob on the brand of food he will only eat!), more toys, more cardboard boxes (gaaah, I’ve got 3 of various sizes lying around already just for his pleasure), and lastly, more kitty video watching time (he likes to hog my monitor by placing two paws up on the monitor stand, with his floofy tail swishing near my face, ugh so rude!)
Oh! On a side note, he’s been studiously viewing and critiquing Tab’s pictures, trying to learn all the uber kitteh model poses, since Tabs is his idol. I keep telling him Tabs has a special quality about him, and that even then it took a while before he was discovered and became famous, but Marcus, being young and impatient, wants things NOW (*sigh, youngster cats!*) Personally, I think he just wants to be famous because he wants his paw on the Hollywood Walk of Fame….
