Busy Day at the Office

My boss phoned me today. He asked, "Is everything okay at the office?"

I said, "Yes, it's all under control. It's been a very busy day, I haven't stopped."

"Can you do me a favor?" he asked.

I said, "Of course, what is it?"

He said, "Hurry up and take your shot, I'm behind you on the 7th hole."



Thanks For Your Support


An employee goes to see his supervisor in the front office.

"Boss," he says, "we're doing some heavy house-cleaning at home tomorrow, and my wife needs me to help with the attic and the garage, moving and hauling stuff."

"Sorry, but we're short-handed." the boss replies. "I can’t give you the day off."

"Thanks, boss." says the employee. "I knew I could count on you!"



Mr. Bigshot


A young businessman had just started his own firm.

He rented a beautiful office and had it furnished with antiques.

Sitting there, he saw a man come into the outer office.

Hoping to look like a hot shot, the businessman picked up the phone and started to pretend he was working on a big, important business deal.

He threw huge figures around and made giant commitments. Finally he hung up and asked the visitor, "Can I help you?"

The man said, "Yeah, I've come to activate your phone lines."



Not Cut Out To Be


I'm not having much luck with jobs lately:

I couldn't concentrate in the orange juice factory.

I wasn't suited to be a tailor.

The muffler factory was just exhausting.

I couldn't cut it as barber.

I didn't have the patience to be a doctor.

I didn't fit in the shoe factory even though I put my soul into it.

The paper shop folded.

Pool maintenance was too draining.

I got fired from the cannon factory.

And I just couldn't see any future as a historian.



The After Life?


My boss asked me today, "Do you believe in life after death and the supernatural?"

I replied, "Yes, I think so."

"I thought you would," he said. "Yesterday after you left to go to your grandmother's funeral, she phoned up to talk to you."



Dress Code


I was called into my manager's office today because of my dress code.

He said, "You can't wear pajamas for work."

I said, "Everyone else does."

He said, "That's because they're patients."



Shorts and Late Night


When I got to work this morning, my boss stormed up to me and said, "You missed work yesterday, didn't you?"

I said, "No, not particularly."

===========

My boss told me that there is no such thing as problems, only opportunities.

I said, "That's great. Well I have a serious drinking opportunity."
