My Life as an Eccentric Billionaire

#3 - To Butle, or not to Butle

Time to get the old "If I were an eccentric billionaire" machine rolling again. I apologize for the lack of recent updates, however, engh. So anyways, on with the show:

If I were an Eccentric Billionaire I would hire a butler to "butle" to my every whim, and I would use that exact terminology. In fact, I would pay to put out a new dictionnary that includes that very word, just so I can rightfully use it and torture my butler who will undoubtebly be a shtickler for proper vocabulary.

A daily ritual would be tormenting him/her from the moment I saw them;
"Jeeves, you're hired!"
"But my name's Jen-"
"JEEVES!"
But the fun won't end there, following a clever play on words by the folks from Penny-Arcade, I will have hours of fun:
"Jeeves, how's the new recycling plant going?"
"Well sir, it's doing just fine."
"You know Jeeves, I just read about this poor guy, just lost his job and been horribly depressed ever since, hire him for the plant supervisor position."
"But sir, you just fired him yesterday."
"I'LL FIRE YOU YESTERDAY!"
(utterly confused) - "So...so I'm fired?"
"Don't worry I'll hire you tomorrow"
"So...I don't have to work today?"
(After thinking about it for a while) - "Hmm, I suppose you're right. Take the rest of the day off then, see ya tomorrow Jeeves."

And that's the truth, tune in next time folks...
