If you have ever had a boss you did not care for, you will appreciate The Jacksonville Norsemen Society or Tyranny and Reprisal, a fictitious story about two rival social clubs: the Jacksonville Jackalopes comprised of the upper crust business owners and the Jacksonville Norsemen Society (a good old boys club) comprised of the working man and woman.
The friction between the two clubs focuses on a large horn that hangs on the porch of the Jacksonville Norsemen Societys Lodge. The horn is used to call out and inform the members when the lodge is open. The Jackalopes detest the horn and have made several unsuccessful attempts to buy, steal or outlaw the use of it. Finally, out of desperation, the Jackalopes decide to infiltrate the Norsemen with one of their own. The infiltrator is to encourage the Jacksonville Norsemen to use credit. Once the debt load is so high that there is no way they can pay the bill the Jackalopes will foreclose and shut down the Jacksonville Norsemen permanently and get rid of that horn!
Mr. Demand Deville, the owner of the Mountain High Chemical Company, which employs a large percent of the Jacksonville Norsemen, who rules his business like a tyrant, volunteers to use his clout to force entry into the rival club. The Norsemen reluctantly agree to allow a six month trial membership for Mr. Deville after an initiation.
In the meantime, the Norsemen get wind of the developing plot the Jackalopes have named Operation Sink the Norsemen. Rather than canceling the entry of Mr. Deville, they decide to use the initiation as a way to get even. Not only for the dirty trick planned by the Jackalopes, but for all of the years of his tyranny.
Revenge can be so sweet. What would you do to your boss if you thought you could get away with it? Climb on board and enjoy the ride.
