After being laid off from five different jobs in four months, Joe was hired by a warehouse.
One day he lost control of a forklift and drove it off the loading dock.
Surveying the damage, the owner shook his head and said he’d have to withhold 10 percent of Joe’s wages to pay for the repairs.
“How much will it cost?”
asked my Joe. “About $5,500,” said the owner. “What a relief!”

exclaimed Joe. “I’ve finally got job security!”
Boss gave each employee a check for $5000.
The owner of a company tells his employees one day, “You worked very hard this year, therefore the company’s profits increased dramatically. As a reward, I’m giving everyone a check for $5,000.”
Thrilled, the employees gather around and high-five one another.

“And if you work with the same zeal next year, I’ll sign those checks!”
