Alejo Needs 50.000 Signatures To Convince Boss

Written by Paul Beelen on November 10th, 2007 | 1 comment

When Alejo asked for a week off to go on holiday with his friends in January, his boss was not very willing to cooperate. In fact, he told him it would be easier to gather 50.000 signatures than to fulfill his Argentine summer dream. So that’s exactly what Alejo and his friends did. To convince his boss he really needed a break, Alejo started to gather signatures on the net.

Wednesday October 31st, he counted 190. Two days later, the number was around 2.500. Yesterday, November 9th, there are close to 15.000 and about 50 people signing his petition every minute. In this pace, Alejo should achieve his goal in a couple of days. All thanks to his blog, a video on YouTube and a Facebook group: “Firma por alejo y sus vacaciones”. Well, and some help from his friends here at ViralBlog. Happy holidays Alejo!
