What's The Job Worth?

When a Colorado mine operator found that his office safe had jammed, he called the nearby state prison and asked whether any of the inmates might know how to open it.

Soon, a convict and a prison guard showed up at the office.

The inmate spun the dials, listened intently and calmly opened the safe door.

“I’m much obliged.” said the mine operator.

“How much do you figure I owe you?”

“Well,” Said the prisoner, “the last time I opened a safe I got $25,000.”

Diagnosis

(Part 2)

When we finished a personality assessment at work, I asked my friend Dan if he would share the results with his wife.

“That would require me to go home and say, ’Hi, honey.  I just paid someone $400 to tell me what’s wrong with me.’” he said.

“And based on that, considering we’ve been married 23 years, she’d hand me a bill for $798,000.”

Older Goats

Groups of Americans were traveling by tour bus through Holland.

As they stopped at a cheese farm, a young guide led them through the process of cheese making, explaining that goat's milk was used.

She showed the group a lovely hillside where many goats were grazing.

These, she explained, are the older goats put out to pasture when they no longer produce.

She then asked, “What do you do in America with your old goats?”

A spry old gentleman answered, “They send us on bus tours! ”
