Introducing our new CEO Alan Joyce


Dear Chaser Fans,

As you well know, the Chaser is one of Australia’s most inept and unprofitable businesses. Terribly run, late for everything, and constantly stuffing up deliveries, I think we can all agree it was an obvious fit for a merger with Qantas.

And so I am pleased to announce that as of today, I - Alan Joyce, will be taking over as CEO of the Chaser.

But don’t fret, there will only be a few small changes to how The Chaser runs.

First, we have fired all the staff. After all, paying those employees is quite expensive, and frankly we don’t have a dollar to spare right now.

Secondly, we have given all the executive board a massive million dollar bonus. I think we can all agree that they’ve earned it after sitting through all those excruciating monthly board meetings and executive retreats. Plus there’s the emotional trauma that came with having to lay off all those single mums.

Now some of you may be asking “Alan, how is the company going to run without staff and only executives” but to that I say… oh dear. Oh Jesus, OH CHRIST FUCK I didn’t think of that! Fuck!!! 

Okay um, what if… uh… what if all the executives started writing jokes and doing stunts? Wait bugger it no, they’re not going to want to do that. Okay well um… what if, stay with me here, what if I just put out a press release blaming the audience for not being “match fit” when it comes to enjoying our jokes? Yes that should do. Can’t imagine there would be any backlash from that.

Now finally, and I think most importantly, we have also launched a new expensive, sorry, exclusive club for you all to join. Called the Qantarse Frequent Fuckup Club - there is a range of merch available which if you order now, we promise will be delivered sometime in the next decade.

Anyway that’s all from me, gotta get back to it, this company won’t not run itself!

Yours,
Alan Joyce
CEO and caviar addict
