Part Time Travel Guide |
Despite repeated State Department warnings, Rich Bossmund, CEO of Bossco,
was again granted access into China.
"Should you, or any member of your I.M. force, be caught, or
killed, the secretary will disavow all knowledge of your actions..."
"Yada... Yada," replied Bossmund, who is determined to hide in plain sight,
with the highest possible profile. "For starters," continued Bossmund,
"you'd think I was the only non-Asian on the catwalk. I know how to blend
in; how to not look like a secret Asian man."
According to Bossmund, his frequent junkets into China are "not just an
international chess-match game of cat and mouse. I generally try to avoid
eating rodents and that darn cat..."
As for the language barrier, Bossmund contends that "a good CEO excels in
telling others where to go. I just give them the finger. The hardest part is
grinning like an idiot every fifteen minutes."
"I actually went to the highest point you can see in the background. That
darn cat!"
So for the present, Rich Bossmund's cover as a part-time tour guide on
China's Great Wall has not been compromised. Nevertheless, working his
clandestineness undercover has come with certain drawbacks: the long commute
to work beginning two
days before his shift starts, is not the least of
which. But on the plus side, he gets back a day early, and he's lost count
of his frequent flyer miles.
"But still," reflects Bossmund, "I'm beginning to have doubts about my
mission of stealing China's Great Wall to use as a border fence between the
U.S. and Mexico. It just may darn well be impossible!"
