JOKE OF THE DAY

Sick Leave

A worker needed a few days off work, but, he knew the Boss would not allow him to take any leave.
So he thought that maybe if he acted 'Crazy' then his boss would tell him to take a few days off.
So he hung upside-down on the ceiling and made funny noises.
His co-worker (a blonde) asked him what he was doing.
He told her that he was pretending to be a light bulb so that the Boss might think he was 'Crazy' and give him a few days off.
A few minutes later the Boss came into the office and asked, 'What in the name of good GOD are you doing?'
The worker told him he was a light bulb.
The Boss replied
, 'You are clearly stressed out.' Go home and recuperate for a couple of days.'
The worker jumped down and walked out of the office...
When his co-worker (the blonde) followed him, the Boss asked her, '..And where do you think you're going?!'

She said, 'I'm going home, too. I can't work in the dark.'

Finally

My parents said they had to make a lot of sacrifices to pay for my education... because they were both druids.

JOKE OF THE DAY

A husband and wife came for counselling after 25 years of marriage. When asked what the problem was, the wife went into an angry tirade listing each and every problem they had ever had in the 25 years they had been married.

She went on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and unloveable, a long list of unmet needs she had endured over the course of their quarter century of marriage.

Finally, after allowing this to go on for a sufficient length of time, the therapist stood up, walked around his desk and, asking the wife to stand, embraced her and kissed her passionately on the mouth.

The woman shut up and, in a daze, quietly sat down;. The therapist turned to the husband and said, "This is what your wife needs at least seven times a week. Do you think you can do this?"

The husband thought for a moment and replied, "Well, Doc, I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on the other days I play golf."

Finally
