LATEST NEWS  Julianne Cearly chops broccoli very aggressively on her kitchen counter in an effort to cope with her recent rejection. | Woman receives rejection letter from herself DULUTH, MN -- Julianne Cearly, President and sole employee of her newly self-founded greeting card company, Clearly Cearly Cards, received a rejection letter yesterday from Julianne Cearly, the president of the company, in response to several card ideas she had submitted two weeks earlier. “To tell you the truth, this is a little awkward,” Cearly said. “And extremely disappointing, because I really wanted to use my own ideas for my card company. But apparently these high and mighty CEO types can’t be bothered with ideas from the little people.” Sources close to Cearly are not sure whether this move was simply an inappropriate use of her newfound power as head of her own organization, or an indication of other psychological problems, such as low self-esteem or even split personality disorder. “People reject their own ideas all the time, either consciously or subconsciously,” said nationally renowned psychologist Jan Nillson. “But actually going to the trouble of sending yourself a letter of rejection? That’s just weird. I’m sorry. But it is.” The ideas submitted by Cearly to herself included a greeting card whose front read, “To the love of my life, who loves to take naps,” and when opened, read, “Rest in peace, my love.” Another card was blank on the outside, and when opened, read, “You’re so hard to THANK that I just drew a BLANK.” “This really puts me in a pickle,” said Cearly. “I’m not sure if I should start soliciting ideas from outside sources, or try submitting my ideas again. My original vision was to have as many greeting card ideas as possible come from within the company. But I guess that’s not going to happen now, is it?” Looking up and shaking a fist toward the ceiling, she went on: “Is it now, Cearly? Is it?" Cearly, the company’s only shareholder, anticipates voting Cearly off the board of directors “in a landslide” next month. “I’ll get you, my pretty,” Cearly said of Cearly. “And your little dog, too.” © 2008 The Teaspoon Times SUPPORT US
