Spooked Cab Driver

A man was riding in a cab one day when he decided to tap the cab driver on the shoulder to request an alternate route.

The cab driver screams his head off and loses control of the cab, causing it to slam into a lightpost.

After checking themselves out the man says, "I'm sorry. I didn't know you were so jumpy."

To which the cab driver replies, "It's not your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver after driving a hearse for 10 years."

Paging Leonidas To The Front Desk

Customer: "Look! My friend told me I could get this type of hammer at your store! Now go get it for me!"

Cashier: "Sir, I already told you... we don't have ANY hammers back here that aren't already stocked on the shelves."

Customer: "LOOK HERE. F**K YOU! I KNOW YOU'RE TRYING TO SAVE MONEY BY SWITCHING OUT YOUR STOCKS! GET ME THIS HAMMER!"

(At this point, I come to the front of the store, overhearing what's going on; note that I'm the manager.)

Me: "Is there a problem?"

Customer: "Yes sir! Your employee here is not doing what I tell her to!"

Me: "Well, you need to calm down and understand that we don't have what you're looking for. So maybe you should go back to shelves and check–"

Customer: "F**K THAT!!! IT'S NOT THERE, OKAY?! YOU NEED TO F**KING GET ME WHAT I ASK FOR!"

Me: "That's it. Get out of my store."

Customer: "What? NO!"

Me: "Sir, get out, or I have to take you out."

Customer: "Then do it!"

(I go around the counter and approach the customer. I yank him by his collar & drag him to the door.)

Me: "Now, then... you wanna apologize and maybe come back in?"

Customer: "No! I just want my hammer! God, what is this madness?!"

Me: *puts the customer down*

Customer: *confused* "... What is it?"

(I turn back to the cashier, who nods in approval. I then turn back to face the customer.)

Me: "Madness? THIS! IS! SPARTAAAAAAAAA!" *kicks customer out of store and slams door*

Jack's Dad's Robot

One day Jack's dad bought a robot. The robot was special in that it could detect a lie and would slap the person who lied on the face.

Jack returned late from school that day and his dad asked him, "Son, why are you late from school?" Jack answered, "Dad, we had extra classes today."

Much to his astonishment the robot jumped up and slapped Jack on his face.

His dad told him that the robot was special in that it could detect a lie, and would then slap the person who lied.

"Now, come on, tell me the truth. Why are you late?"

"Dad, I went to see a movie."

"Which movie?"

"The Ten Commandments."

Splat, Jack got a tight slap on the face from the robot.

"No, Dad, honest I went to see the movie Sex Queen."

"Shame on you son, when I was your age I never used to do such terrible things."

Splat, the dad gets a tight slap on the face from the robot.

Hearing all this, Jack's mother comes walking out of the kitchen saying,

"After all, he is your son, he will be like you."

The robot steps up and gives a resounding slap on Jack's mother's face.

Proper Dress Code

A recent college graduate got hired by the human-development center of a large corporation to train the employees in proper dress code and etiquette.

One day as she was stepping onto the elevator, a man who was casually dressed in jeans and a golf shirt got on with her.

"Dressed a little casually today, aren't we?" she said in a scolding tone.

"That's one of the benefits of owning the company," the man replied with a grin.

At Work . . Or Not

Bill Smith started the day early, having set his alarm clock (made in Japan), for 6.00 a.m. While his coffee pot (made in Japan), is perking, he puts his blow dryer (made in Taiwan) to work and shaves with his electric razor (made in Hong Kong). He puts on a dress shirt (made in Taiwan), his designer jeans (made in Singapore), and a pair of tennis shoes (made in Korea).
After cooking up some breakfast in his new electric skillet (made in the Philippines), he sits down to figure out on his calculator (made in Mexico), how much he can spend today. After setting his watch (made in Switzerland), to the radio (made in Hong Kong), he goes out, gets in his car (made in Germany), goes looking as he has been for months, for a good paying American job.
After the end of another discouraging and fruitless day, Bill decides to relax for a while. He puts on a pair of sandals (made in Brazil), pours himself a glass of wine made in France), and turns on his TV (made in Japan), and wonders again why he can't find a good paying job in America.

Doesn't Mix Well

A terrific explosion occurs in a gunpowder factory, and once all the mess has been cleared up, and inquiry begins.
One of the few survivors is asked to make a statement. "Okay, Phillips," says the investigator, "you were near the scene - what happened?"

"Well, it's like this. Old Fred Wilson was in the mixing room, and I saw him take a cigarette out of his pocket and light up."

"He was smoking in the mixing room?" the investigator said in stunned horror, "How long had he been with the company?"

"About 20 years, sir."

"Twenty years in the company, then he goes and strikes a match in the mixing room! I'd have thought it would have been the last thing he'd have done."

"It was, sir."
