SOME LESSONS
A young executive
was leaving the office at 6 p.m. when he found the CEO standing in
front of a shredder with a piece of paper in his hand. "Listen,"
said the CEO, "this is a very sensitive and important document, and
my secretary has left. Can you make this thing work?"
"Certainly," said the young
executive. He turned the machine on, inserted the paper, and pressed the
start button. "Excellent, excellent!" said
the CEO as his paper
disappeared inside the machine. "I just need one copy."
Lesson I - Never,
never assume that your BOSS knows everything.
A crusty old man walks
into a bank and says to the teller at the window:
"I want to open a damn
checking account." To which the astonished woman replies: "I beg
your pardon, sir; I must have misunderstood you. What did
you say?" "Listen up bitch! I said, I want to open a damn checking account
right now!" "I'm very sorry sir, but we do not tolerate that kind
of language in this bank."
Having said this, the
teller leaves the window and goes over to the bank manager to tell
him about her problem customer. They both return and the manager
asks the old geezer: "What seems to be the problem here?" "There's
no damn problem, sonny," the elderly man says. "I just won 50
million bucks in the damn lottery and I want to open a damn
checking account in this damn bank!"
"I see," says the
manager thoughtfully. "And you're saying that this bitch here is
giving you a hard time?"
Lesson II - If you are
RICH, you can get away with almost anything.
An American and a
Japanese were sitting on the plane on the way to LA when the American
turned to the Japanese and asked, "What kind of ese are you?"
Confused, the Japanese replied, "Sorry but I don't
understand what you
mean." The American repeated, "What kind of -ese are you?" Again,
the Japanese was confused over the question.
The American, now
irritated, then yelled, "What kind of -ese are you...Are you a
Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese!, etc......???" The Japanese then replied,
"Oh, I am Japanese."
A while later
the Japanese turned to the American and asked "What kind of 'key' was he.
The American, frustrated, yelled, "What do you mean what kind of
'-key' am I?!" The Japanese said, "Are you a
Yankee, donkee, or
monkee?"
Lesson III - Never
insult anyone.
A junior manager, a
senior manager and their boss are on their way
to meeting. On their
way through a park, they come across a wonder
lamp. They rub the lamp
and a ghost appears. The ghost says,
"Normally, one is
granted three wishes but as you are three, I
will allow one wish
each"
So the eager
senior manager shouted, I want the first wish. I want to be in the Bahamas,
on a fast boat and have no worries.
Pfufffff, and he was
gone. Now the junior manager could not keep quiet and shouted "I
want to be in Florida with beautiful girls, plenty of food and
cocktails. "Pfufffff, and he was also gone. The boss calmly said, "I
want these two idiots back in the office after lunch"
Lesson V - "Always
allow the bosses to speak first" |
