When I became the catalog editor to a firm dealing in stamps for
collectors, i found myself in the od position of being a complete
department of one.  This meant, that as department head (!) I used to
have to report to the board meeting every month.  I established my
future relationship withthem on the first month by enetering when called,
and annoucning to the self-important assembly - "It's OK - no need to
get up."
