A realty salesman had just closed his first deal, only to discover that the piece of land he had sold was completely under water.
"That customer's going to come back here pretty mad," he said to his boss. "Should I give him his money back?"
"Money back?" roared the boss. "What kind of salesman are you? Get out there and sell him a houseboat."
My Uncle Joe got fired from his construction job. I asked him what happened.
"You know what a foreman is?" he asked. "The one who stands around and watches the other men work."
"What's that got to do with it?" I asked.
"Well, he just got jealous of me," Uncle Joe explained. "Everyone thought I was the foreman." |
