Jay applied for the job of night security guard at the factory.
The boss looked him over carefully.
“The sort of person we need for this job,” said the boss finally, “is tough, fearless, aggressive, suspicious, distrustful, always on the lookout for trouble, and constantly ready to flare into violence. Quite frankly, you don’t seem to fit the bill.
“Oh, that is all right,” explained Jay. “I HAVE ONLY COME TO APPLY FOR THE JOB ON BEHALF OF MY WIFE.”

A woman, searching for a job, inquired about the benefits.
The Personnel Manager informed her they had group health and life insurance, but the costs were deducted from the employee’s pay.
She said, “My last employer had full health coverage, as well as five years salary for life insurance and a month’s sick leave AND they paid the full premiums.”
“I can’t help but asking madam why you would leave a job with such benefits,” the interviewer replied.
The woman shrugged her shoulders and said, “The company went bankrupt.”

A young man hired by a supermarket reported for his first day of work.
The manager greeted him with a warm handshake and a smile, gave him a broom and said, “Your first job will be to sweep out the store.”
“But I’m a college graduate,” the young man replied indignantly.
“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t know that,” said the manager. “Here, give me the broom – I’ll show you how.”
