Red Ferrari
After all that time on the road, it felt great to get home and sleep in our own beds. It made for a relaxing night, and when we reported for work the next morning, Pavel Bure was sitting on 49 goals. (Pav had already told us he was planning to celebrate his 50th by buying a brand new Red Ferrari, so we thought, who are we to stand in the way of a young man's dreams)? With a quick call to the finance department we authorized a ten thousand dollar bonus to help with his down payment.
Later that day, (Team Owner) Arthur Griffiths called to express how happy he was we'd been in first place most of the season, and also to ask if we needed anything to do our job. Just two things we replied, first - authorization for next year's arena expansion plans, and second - his approval for an internal promotion, as we wanted to move one of our people up the chain of command. (But more on that soon)...
