First day on the job, and this trainee already knows how to handle the big boss!
A man starts his first day as a trainee at a big corporate empire. Feeling bold, he picks up the phone and dials the pantry. “Get me a coffee, quickly!” he demands.
But—oops! He didn’t dial the pantry.
A voice on the other end snaps back, “You fool! You’ve dialed the wrong extension! Do you even know who you’re talking to, dumbo?!”
“No,” the trainee replies.
The voice on the other end huffs, “It’s the CEO of the company, you fool!”
The trainee thinks for a second, then shouts back, “And do you know who YOU’RE talking to, you fool?!”
The CEO, now totally confused, asks, “No, who?”
The trainee replies, “Good!” and hangs up.
Employee Asking For A Raise
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!
Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!
