I work for a great company

I work for a great company. How do I know? This email just went out to everyone in the office:

Hi everyone,

Nate and Andre have requested fifteen (15) pieces of Popeyes fried chicken each for Thursday, so they can have their long-awaited showdown (what I like to refer to as the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre). I wanted to give everyone a heads up so 1. If you planned on working from home, now you have a reason not to, 2. If you want to throw down with these two titans, inform me so I can also order you fifteen (15) pieces of Popeyes, and 3. If you want Popeyes, I’ll be taking orders tomorrow morning. Or, you can email me with requests before noon on Wednesday.

Let’s have a good 2008, in terms of massive quantities of unhealthy food.

Yeah, that’s right, we do eating contests. At the company meeting last week, Andre won the company-wide “Work Hard, Eat Harder” award. Now Nate is attempting to dethrone them. This is a rematch of their previous battle, in which Nate won by eating nine pieces of fried chicken in ten minutes. This time there will be no time limit though.

    that’s gross. how much could you eat?

  2. Cyde Weys Says:

    Well the latest record was thirteen (mixed) pieces of Popeyes fried chicken in 30 minutes.

    I wouldn’t really call it gross per se. We don’t compete at anywhere near an IFOCE level.
