Dear Friends,
Vivendi Universal, Borders Books would like to invite you to join me at Borders Westwood June 7 at 7:30 p.m. to celebrate the dvd release of the “Fired” documentary. The dvd goes on sale that day and we’ll be signing copies at the store. Borders Westwood is at 1360 Westwood Blvd. (Westwood and Rochford)
Jeff Garlin (from Curb Your Enthusiasm), Harry Shearer (from The Simpsons and Spinal Tap), Rabbi Mel Gottlieb (featured in the film) and I will show a few clips from the film and we’d love to raise a toast to you . So many of you have participated in the film, live shows, book and been supportive, this promises to be the last big Fired gathering and I’d love to see you there.
“Fired” has connected with many people and groups all over the country having been screened at festivals around the country, premiered on Showtime and has had special showings sponsored by AFL-CIO and other labor unions as well as Human Resource Groups and Labor and Employment Lawyers across the country.
Oprah Magazine has called the film “entertaining and slyly subversive,” Newsday deemed it “Funny, Poignant, and Smart” and The Nation Magazine said “it’s hilarious and important. ” It’s been praised by Forbes, Talk of the Nation, Businessweek, and CNN, amongst others.
We’d love to have you there for this gathering and won’t you invite friends in the LA area? We hope to see you there!
Best wishes and much gratitude,
Annabelle

Being fired is not so bad. I have been fired many times.

I happened to pick up a copy of “Fired” over the weekend for $5.00. A sad subject, but much of the book is funny, check it out if you can. They asked me, “can you spare a minute??” That was the end of me in New Jersey.

I happened to run into another great book
in a thrift store, “The Dilbert Principle”
by Scott Adams. Also very funny, but with a
dark side, I had read it years ago.
