https://media.newyorker.com/photos/5cfbc7884272b4f4d34ee2f5/master/w_727,c_limit/Borowitz-TrumpandMay.jpgLONDON (The Borowitz Report)A British woman quit her job, on Friday, after being forced to spend the better part of a week with Donald J. Trump, the woman has confirmed.
Speaking to reporters at her office in London, the woman said that, although she had spent years trying to get the job, having to endure several days in the company of Trump convinced her that life is too short.
When I started this job, I knew that a certain amount of my responsibilities would involve dealing with members of the public, she said. But had I known that I also would have to spend hours listening to Donald Trump talk, I certainly would have applied for a different position.
Compounding the womans nightmare, she was required to spend time not only with Trump but with his adult children as well. Having to talk to that Eric person reduced me to tears, she said.

Something like this actually happened, according to Michael Wolff's new book.

Trump wanted to hire Nick Ayers, a Pence aide, as his new chief of staff, but after Ayers held the position unofficially for three or four days he turned the position down because, as he allegedly said, he couldnt work with Mr-F***ing-out-of-his-mind-totally-crazy.
