 The imagination
Several weeks after a young man had been hired, he was called into
the personnel director’s office. “What is the meaning of this?” the
director asked. “When you applied for this job, you told us you had five
years experience. Now we discovered this is the first job you’ve ever
held.”
“Well,” the young man replied, “in your advertisement you said you
wanted somebody with imagination.”
Repair service
When the office photocopies began to look faint, the office manager
called in a local repair service.
The friendly technician after inspecting the equipment informed the
manager that the machine was in need of a good clean.
He suggested that someone might try reading the operator’s manual and
perform the job themselves, since it would cost $100.00, if he did the
work.
Surprised by his candor, the office manager asks, “Does your boss
know you are discouraging business?”
“Actually, my boss demands we explain this to all our customers”.
“After people try first to fix things themselves, we end-up making much
more money on repairs”.
Job application
An applicant was filling out a job application. When he came to the
question, “Have you ever been arrested?” He answered, “No.” The next
question, intended for people who had answered in the affirmative to the
former one, was “Why?” The applicant answered it anyway: “Never got
caught.” allthejokes |
