Irony

So also today I got an envelope in the mail. The envelope was marked with an eagle logo, and two phrases:

  • "You play an important part"
  • "IMPORTANT AWARD MATERIALS ENCLOSED"

The letter inside?

Dear Awardee,

Congratulations on your anniversary with Saralee Coffee and Tea.

For your convenience, an Award Order Form has been included in this packet...

This would be the order form for the gift for my five year anniversary, which wouldn't have been until December 6th.

Not even a form letter, mind you. The whole packet is pregenerated and generic.

Not only that, but the third-party company that manages it didn't even spell the company name right.

<Sigh>
