TODAY’S BLOG

It’s “Funny Friday!”   I hope this one will add another smile or laugh to the beginning of your weekend.

FUNNY FRIDAY:  The Genie and the Manager

A sales rep, a clerk, and a manager are walking to lunch when they see a really old oil lamp.

Thinking that they found something valuable, they rub it and, lo and behold, a genie appears!

The genie says, “I’ll give each of you one wish.”

“Me first!” exclaims the clerk.  “I want to be in the Greek Islands, on board a yacht and without a care in the world.”

Poof!  The clerk disappears.

“I’m next!  I’m next!” says the sales guy.  “Take me to the Caribbean where I can relax on the beach with a gorgeous girl to massage me.”

Poof!  And he disappears.

“OK, your turn now,” says the genie to the manager.

The manager says, “I want those two back in the office after lunch.”

MORAL OF THE STORY:  Always let your boss have the first say.
