Yes, Virginia, There is a Bob; Bob from Accountemps Saves the Day for Yet Another Business

MENLO PARK, Calif., Nov. 30, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- One of the world's most beloved and legendary figures made his eagerly anticipated arrival today, bringing with him bundles of mirth and merriment.

Mass high-fiving followed a chorus of cheers as Bob from Accountemps walked through the office door. Realizing they now had the help they needed to dig out from an avalanche of end-of-year work, exhausted accounting and finance staff breathed a collective sigh of relief.

"Joy to the world!" exclaimed a bookkeeper. "It is a wonderful life!"

Eyewitnesses reported that Bob appeared just in the nick of time. Company insiders said the overwhelming workload was taking a heavy toll.

"Honestly, it looked like a blizzard blew through the accounting department," a mailroom clerk said. "Excel spreadsheets, invoices and calculators were strewn everywhere. I didn't know how bad the situation was until I delivered a package to Nerlman yesterday and found him filling the watercooler with a mixture of coffee and Red Bull."

Multiple sources confirmed the accounting and finance teams had been subsisting for days on fruitcake and gingerbread cookies sent by clients.

As the boss, Mr. Fernwell, surveyed the room full of jubilant employees, he explained the greatest benefit of bringing in capable reinforcements: "Bob has knowledge and specialized expertise that will help us meet our goals and deadlines. It's been a long year, and Bob's presence also allows us to take a short break and celebrate the season.

"It's a holiday miracle, actually," Mr. Fernwell continued, his voice cracking. "We'll be able to have the white elephant gift exchange luncheon after all."

Despite the hero's welcome, Bob had no comment.
