Roger: Sir, about this memo you sent out. The one asking employees to gain weight and dress badly for the upcoming company photo, so that you'll look extra good by comparison. Boss: What about it? Roger: How come I didn't get a copy? Boss: By the way, Fox, I want you standing at my side. Roger: That's flattering, sir, but you aren't answering my question.

What a coincidence, that’s what the boss said to me.

Flattering? No. But he did answer your question.

I think the boss is Dogbert, from Dilbert. Can’t be The Pointy Haired boss—he’s not that sarcastic.

OK, Roger, since you obviously couldn’t read a room if your life depended on it, i’ll answer your question.
You didn’t get a copy of the memo because in your case, it would have been redundant. In fact, I’ll bet the memo originally had a photo of you with a caption underneath that read, “See this guy? Dress just like him!”
Of course, Roger would take that as the ultimate compliment.
