Humour in uniform

Raja was my Regional Manager at Bombay. Indian Airlines had just then announced the introduction of Business class in the metro flights.
Raja promptly shot off a mail to KG, the Personnel Manager, with the newspaper clipping. The message was in the tone of ‘in case you didn’t know… time to amend the travel eligibility rules for the senior managers…’
The mail went under the ‘regular series’ and not under the ‘confidential’ marking. Raja was sure that he will be in the upgraded list and wanted the office to be impressed when the reply came.
KG’s reply came soon.
‘Thanks for sharing the news. Those entitled have already been informed’.
The office was indeed impressed…. by KG’s wit.
