Joe grew up in a town so tiny, the welcome sign didn’t bother with “Welcome”—it just said “Hi.”
After escaping to the big city for college and law school, he returned home with a dream: in a place this small, being slightly impressive made you a local legend. He’d be the legal eagle of Mayberry, the courtroom king of cornfields.
He opened a law office—leather chairs, framed diplomas, one of those fancy pens you never actually use. He had everything… except clients.
Then one day, a miracle: a man walked briskly toward the front door. Joe’s heart nearly burst from excitement. His first client! Showtime.
Thinking fast, Joe grabbed his dead phone and launched into the performance of his life—a full-blown, Oscar-worthy monologue worthy of Law & Order: Delusional Intent.
“No, tell the Wall Street guys I don’t do discounts,” he barked. “A million minimum—or I walk. Yes, I’ll be in court next week—lead counsel, obviously. My associates? They’re the backup dancers. I’m the Beyoncé of litigation. And someone warn the DA—I can squeeze him in between saving democracy and lunch.”
Five minutes of pure, undiluted bluffing.
He finally hung up, turned to the visitor with a dazzling grin, and said, “Sorry about the wait—things are a little hectic today. What can I do for you?”
The man blinked. “I’m from the phone company. I’m here to install your line.”
Jacob worked in the coat business
Jacob worked in the coat business, but unfortunately, the business was very bad.
One day, his partner James said to him, “What are we going to do with these fifty coats?” They’re last year’s style, and although we’ve knocked them down to $100 each, we still can’t sell any.”
Jacob replied, “Use your head, James. Price them at $200 and send 10 of our best lawyer clients five coats each.
But here’s the plan. Put in an invoice for $800 for only four coats. If I know them, our clients will think we’ve made a mistake.
They’ll jump at a bargain and pay the $800.”
So James did as he was told. Within 10 days, they received all 10 parcels with an almost identical letter reading.
“I did not order these coats and hence sending them back with your Invoice.”
And each parcel contained only 4 coats.
LOL!!
Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!
