The boss had pulled out all the stops for this particular retirement dinner. After all, this retiree was Rosemary, his long-time administrative assistant. She had done more to organize his office and staff than 10 management consulting firms. Several times during her long tenure, he had come close to taking her for granted. But he always caught himself just in the nick of time by realizing just how valuable she was to him and his company. Now that she was retiring, he was definitely not looking forward to having to replace here. The time came for him to make his speech.
