Where have All The Tuesday Treats Gone????

We arrived today to find that all the Tuesday Treats had been stolen from Our Cave. Our Cave, which is located at the top of a snow covered mountain, is the place we work from well waiting for the hotel in the valley to be finished. We do not have heat or ac here in The Cave so at times it is very very chilly. Our Tuesday Treats are one of the few things that bring us joy here in The Cave that and our Hump Day Porn. From time to time, 666, better now as Betty, and her children come up from The Burrow (their house in the valley) and visit The Cave after we workers have left. This morning we noticed that all our Tuesday Treats had been eaten. Our yummy jelly donuts with sprinkles and icing, our peanut butter filled pretzels and our smooth hot coco. OH, who could do such a mean and nasty thing to us. They are gone, gone, all gone. But don't despair sweet Tuesday Treats, we will find you!!!!! The authority's have been contacted and an APB has been issued. Justice will be served. We workers and our Tuesday Treats will not be treated so harshly.

Have a Super Tuesday Kids ............. Hágoónee'

Today's Lesson in Business Ethics - When All Else Fails, LIE!

Okay Kids,

Today we will take a lesson from Fred and Betty's code of business ethics. When all else fails, LIE. Thats right kids, I said, "LIE" Here in the valley we will manipulate any weed and make it a rose. Whether you are talking to the press, future hotel patrons or the misfit toys themselves, LIE. I said it and you can lie to make all your problems go away. Here are a few expamples that will help you become a great hotel proprietor some day:

Example 1. You find your not going to meet your opening deadline again and everyone is asking questions......... HMMM what should you do.......... Just lie, pretend the question asked is the silliest thing you have every heard and deny the hotel will not be ready..

Example 2. Ok you missed your deadline and folks have come in from all over the Swiss Province to spend the night. What to do, most people would have angina at this point, not you... Simply lie, Offer them a nice comfortable tent and sleeping bag down in the meadow, tell them this is four star service and this is Swiss service at its finest. Crisis averted, maybe not. HMMM just lie again - just blame someone else. After all this is the Valley of Misfit Toys no one expects too much.

Example 3. Ok final example kids. Your Uncle and his partner are ballooning in for a committment ceremony. You have reassurred them everything is ready from the flowers to the punch to the committment cake. Your Uncle and his partner are in the balloon and flying over Misfit Valley. They arrive to find the doors have been barracaded with a stop work order and the caterers sit in there trucks waiting to get in. OH NO!!! HOW DO YOU GET OUT OF THIS ONE? RELAX KIDS, just LIE. Blame Charlie in the Box and the Toy Train with square wheels for their incompetence. Then simply set up the reception by the Johnny on the spots, throw some white netting over the out houses and again pretend that everything is great. Sure you look like a fool, but you have successfully lied your way out of another sticky situation.

Oh, look at the time I have to go.... Another job interview were I will have to lie and tell the job candidate how smoothly everything is going. If I decide to hire this person I will have to lie again and tell them to start in a few weeks, when in fact I know it will be 3 or 4 months before the beautiful Swiss Style Hotel and Salon will open.

I love my job.............

Bye for now KIDS......................... Otshikale la wolo

Welcome to Crazy Town

Welcome to our world. It started about a year ago when we started working for Fred and Betty Vontrap and their vision for a new swedish style hotel that would be built in the Misfit Toy Valley. The Vontraps have been the model of what to do; to not get a hotel built and open. If you can imagine the Swiss version of Faulty Towers, then you will appreciate this blog. The Vontraps have provided us, their workers with many hours of comic relief. We who will post here for your enjoyment will be known simply as Two, Three & Four. (for reasons we cannot disclose)

I am Four the provider of Tuesday Treats. Three is the processor of credit cards and Two is the ring leader of this circus side show.

Oh we must also introduce you to the Vontrap Children -
Marilyn - the middle child 14
Eddie 18
Thing the youngest child 7
Princess the oldest child.

We are currently working at an undisclosed location preparing for the opening of this new Swiss Style Hotel. As you read these blog entries, we will try to fill you in on the day to day comings, goings, mishaps, near hits and misses, legal actions and accidents, openings and closings, tear filled brides, thefts and miraculous recoveries. OH AND BETTY VONTRAPS LIES, OH THE LIES, LIES, LIES.... ALL HERE IN THE SMALL TOWN OF CRAZY.....
