Title: Corporate Lessons
Post by Peppermint on Jan 23^rd, 2003, 4:49pm

:P....................

Corporate lesson 1

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower when the doorbell rings. After a few seconds of arguing over which one should go and answer the doorbell, the wife gives up, quickly wraps herself up in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next door neighbor. Before she says a word, Bob says, "I'll give you 800 dollars to drop that towel that you have on."

After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob. After a few seconds, Bob hands her 800 dollars and leaves.

Confused, but excited about her good fortune, the woman wraps back up in the towel a! nd goes back upstairs. When she gets back to the bathroom, her husband asks from the shower "Who was that ?" It was Bob the next door neighbor," she replies. "Great," the husband says, "did he say anything about the 800 dollars he owes me ?"

Moral of the story: If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk in advance with your stakeholders, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.

Corporate lesson 2

A minister was driving along and saw a woman on the side of the road. He stopped and offered her a lift which she accepted. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to open and reveal a lovely leg. The minister had a look and nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg. The woman looked at him and immediately said "Reverend, remember psalm 129 ?" The minister was flustered and apologized profusely. He forced himself to remove his hand. However, he was unable to remove his eyes from her leg. Further on while hanging gear, he let his hand slide up her leg again. The woman once again said, "Reverend remember psalm 129 ?" Once again the minister apologized. "Sorry sister but the flesh is weak." Arriving at her stopping point, the woman got out gave him a meaningful glance and went on her way.
On his arrival at the church, the minister rushed to retrieve a bible and looked up psalm 129. It Said, "Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory."

Moral of the story: Always be well informed in your job, or you might miss a great opportunity

Corporate Lesson 3

A sales representative, an administration clerk and their manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a genie comes out in a puff of smoke. The Genie says, "I usually only grant three wishes, so I'll give each of you just one." "Me first ! Me first !" says the admin clerk. "I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat, without a care in the world." Poof ! She's gone. "Me next ! Me next !" says the sales rep. "I want to be in Hawaii, relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of pina coladas and the love of my life beside me." Poof! He's gone. "OK, you're up," the Genie says 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.
