The movie theater manager had heard
complaints from several customers about a cowboy lying sprawled across four
seats in a posh Amarillo theatre. He decided he would have to do something.
Sure enough, there was a man, lying across four seats. He whispered to the
cowboy, "I'm sorry, sir, but you'll have to sit up. Only one seat per
customer." The cowboy just groaned. The manager grew angry. "Sir, if you
don't sit up, I'm going to call the police." The cowboy groaned again. So
the manager summoned the police. They entered the theater together and found
the cowboy in exactly the same place. The cop took charge. "All right,
buddy. What's your name?" "Sam," the cowboy moaned. "Where ya from, Sam?"
Sam groaned, "The balcony." |

Bill Gates is hanging out with the chairman
of General Motors. "If automotive technology had kept pace with computer
technology over the past few decades," boasts Gates, "you would now be
driving a V-32 instead of a V-8, and it would have a top speed of 10,000
miles per hour. Or, you could have an economy car that weighs 30 pounds and
gets a thousand miles to a gallon of gas. In either case, the sticker price
of a new car would be less than $50." "Sure," says the GM chairman. "But
would you really want to drive a car that crashes four times a day?"

Two young engineers applied for a single
position at a computer company. They both had the same qualifications. In
order to determine which individual to hire, the applicants were asked to
take a test by the department manager. Upon completion of the test, both men
had each missed only one of the questions. The manager went to the first
applicant and said, ''Thank you for your interest, but we've decided to give
the job to the other applicant.'' "And why would you be doing that? We both
got nine questions correct," asked the rejected applicant. "We have based
our decision not on the correct answers, but on the question you missed,"
said the department manager. "And just how would one incorrect answer be
better than the other?" the rejected applicant inquired. ''Simple,'' said
the department manager, ''Your fellow applicant put down on question #5, 'I
don't know.' You put down, 'Neither do I.''' |

The manager of a megastore came to check on
his new salesman. "How many customers did you serve today?" the manager
asked. "One," replied the new guy. "Only one?" said the boss. "How much was
the sale?" The salesman answered, "$58,334." Flabbergasted, the manager
asked him to explain. "First I sold a man a fishhook," the salesman said.
"Then I sold him a rod and a reel. Then I asked where he was planning to
fish, and he said down by the coast. So I suggested he'd need a boat - he
bought that 20-foot runabout. When he said his Volkswagen might not be able
to pull it, I took him to the automotive department and sold him a big SUV."
The amazed boss asked, "You sold all that to a guy who came in for a
fishhook?" "No," the new salesman replied. "He actually came in for a bottle
of aspirin for his wife's migraine. I told him, "Your weekend's shot. You
should probably go fishing." |
