    Do magicians dump their assistants because they think it's time they saw other people?

          Magicians cannot fully devote themselves to one person so they have their assistants split.

            Do magicians assistants tend to have a split personality? :confused:

              If they got a hold of a rotten piece of fruit, would they disappear?

                A magician never needs to dump anyone. He just does a disappearing act!

                  Like the Mexican magician who said "Uno", "Dos"... and then he disappeared without a tres... :-D

                      They don’t “dump” her. They give her a pen & tell her that they are splitting ways...

                      If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

                        When they do staff pruning, they do it by putting a circular on the table, and they don't fret about it; just give them the chop. They let the assistant take a final bow, though. Sometimes the staff reciprocate; many ex-magicians take the plunge and join a band instead, though sometimes the magicians have them back. If they're coping well and not cross about it, they might do a little jig, though this can hack off their ex-employer. I bet you saw this coming though.
