Joke of the Day: Highly Sought After
Boudreau walked into his boss’s office. The boss asked him, “Boudreau, what can I do for you?”
“Well, sir,” says Boudreau, “I been working for you for 10 years. I won’t beat around da bush. Sir, I would like a raise. I currently have four companies after me and so I dun decided to talk to you first.”
The boss clears his throat and says, “A raise? I would love to give you a raise, Boudreau, but this is just not the right time.”
Boudreau says, “I understand your position, and I know dat the current economic downturn has had a negative impact on sales. But you must also take into consideration my hard work, pro-activeness, and loyalty to dis company for over a decade.”
The boss thinks a minute, then tells Boudreau, “Taking into account these factors, and considering I don’t want to start a brain drain, I’m willing to offer you a 10% raise and an extra 5 days of vacation time. How does that sound?”
Boudreau says, “Great! It’s a deal! T’ank you, sir!”
“Before you go,” says the boss, “just out of curiosity, what companies are after you?”
Says Boudreau, “Oh, da Electric Company, Gas Company, Water Company, and da Mortgage Company!”
