I'll take "Inappropriate Office Analogies" for $500, Alex

Someone I know quite well recently related a story to me about a meeting they had with the big CEO of their company in regards to contracting a third party company. It went something like this:

Friend: (listing the reasons to do business with third party company)
"...And that's why we should contract with them for their services."

Big CEO: "The way I see it, it's like we're the mistress."

(questioning look from Friend)

"We're the mistress. A mistress is sexy, until you get her in bed. Then she's not sexy anymore."

(leaning back and smurking)

"And I like being sexy."
