Employee: Excuse me, sir, may I talk to you?
Boss: Sure, come in. What can I do for you?
Employee: Well sir, as you know, I have been an employee of this reputable company for over ten years.
Boss: Yes, and we’re glad to have you here.
Employee: I won’t beat around the bush. Sir, I would like a raise. I currently have four companies following me so I decided to talk to you first.
Boss: A raise? I would love to give you a raise but now is just not the right time.
Employee: I understand your position and I know these are tough times economically, but you also have to take into consideration my hard work, pro-activeness, and loyalty to this company for over a decade. I want to continue working here, but that needs to go both ways.
Boss: Considering these factors and since I don’t want to start a brain drain, I’m willing to offer you a ten percent raise and an extra five days of vacation time. How does that sound?
Employee: Great! It’s a deal! Thank you, sir!
Boss: Before leaving, just out of curiosity, which companies were after you?
Employee: Oh, the Electric Company, Gas Company, Water Company, and the Mortgage Company!
A deal’s a deal.
LOL! SO FUNNY!
The Interview Question
A mathematician, an accountant, and an economist apply for the same position.
The interviewer calls in the mathematician and asks: “What does two plus two equal?”
The mathematician replies: “Four.”
The interviewer asks: “Exactly four?
The mathematician looks at the interviewer incredulously and says: “Yes, four, exactly.”
Then the interviewer calls in the accountant and asks the same question. “What does two plus two equal?”
The accountant says: “On average, four – give or take ten percent, but on average, four.”
Then the interviewer calls in the economist and poses the same question. “What does two plus two equal?”
The economist gets up, locks the door, closes the shade, leans close to the interviewer, and whispers: “What do you want it to equal?”
The economist got the job.
LOL!!
Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!
