Boss wants too much
For thirty years,John had arrived at work at 9A.M.on the dot.He hadnever missed a day and was never late.
Consequently,when on one particular day 9 A.M.passed withoutJohnson's arrival,it caused a sensation.All work ceased,and the boss himself,looking at his watch and muttering,came out into the corridor.
Finally,precisely at ten,John showed up,clothes dusty and torn,his facescratched and bruised,his glasses bent.He limped painfully to the time clock,punched in,and said,aware that all eyes were upon him,\"I tripped and rolleddown two flights of stairs in the subway.Nearly killed myself.\"
And the boss said,\"Aud to roll down two flights of stairs took you a wholehour?\"
