Hinterland Tales: The Ant

Mme Metro pointed this out to me.



I sent the link to my boss. I mean, times are tough economically, and it never hurts to issue a subtle message, eh?

Hmmm... Ya know, someone with a stunted sense of humour could view that as a threat. Something that I, unfortunately, have had personal experience with.
Cheers,

@mister anchovy
Ain't it though? And every Canadian responds to those first whistling notes like Pavlov's pups--except that we feel an irrepressible urge to bolt for the fridge, fill our cereal bowls and try to get back before the cartoons start again ...

@IH
Just purely for informational, innocent purposes, what if your purpose was to make a subtle threat, to shore up your position in a company that might just choose to downsize anyone they don't see as important, for example, a junior editor who works in the office equivalent of the kidneys?

(The kidneys being the bits no-one pays attention to unless the output stops).
