Open Letter to that one gray eyebrow hair

Dear GEH

I appreciate that you like to be different. We all do. We like to stand out in the crowd -- be noticed -- get that individual personal attention.

That being said, when you joined our team -- I made it clear that there are standards of compliance that are expected to be followed. A difference in texture will be tolerated -- but going your own way and failing to conform to the rest of the team is not acceptable.

This brings us to your actions today. I made it clear to you that you are no longer welcome to be a part of the team. That it was time for us to part ways. I fail to understand your recalcitrance to exit gracefully when you are so clearly not wanted and not welcome.

Your insistence in hanging on -- clinging to the team -- and in fact -- allowing your closest team mates to be extracted instead of you -- leaving -- I must add -- a gaping hole in the team that will be difficult to hide - -baffles me.

Now that you have (finally) agreed to be removed -- I expect you to remain gone from these premises.

Failure to comply will result in immediate corrective action.

I hope I have made myself clear

Sincerely,

the Farschside

P.S. Any attempt to convert other teammates to your side will be frowned upon and will also result in their immediate extraction of those individuals.

you have been warned.
