HAVE A LAUGH

Taxi drivers

Two tourists were travelling to Australia. Before they left home, one of their fathers gave them both a bit of advice: “You watch those Aussie taxi drivers. They’ll rob you blind. Don’t you go paying them what they ask. You haggle.”

At the Sydney airport, the Irishmen caught a taxi to their hotel. When they reached their destination, the driver said, “That’ll be twenty dollars, lads.”

“Oh no you don’t!” said one of the men.

“My dad warned me about you. You’ll only be getting fifteen dollars from me.”

“And you’ll only be getting fifteen from me too,” added the other.

Building a business

The CEO of a large cooperation was giving advice to a junior executive.

“I was young, married and out of work,” he lectured.

“I took the last nickel I had and bought an apple. I polished it and sold it for a dime. The next day I bought two apples, polished them and sold them for ten cents each.”

“I see,” said the junior executive. “You kept reinvesting your money and grew a big business.”

“No,” said the CEO. “Then my wife’s father died and left me a fortune.”

Is it serious?

A man went to his doctor to go over his blood work results. As soon as he entered the doctor’s office, the doctor said to him, “I just looked at your results. You are lucky that you come to see me early enough...”

The man became very nervous and asked, “What’s wrong with my blood work?”

“Oh nothing! Just that I’ll be leaving my office early today,” replied the doctor.

Revised salary

HR: “This is your revised salary. We recommend you keep it confidential.”

Employee: “Don’t worry, I’m equally ashamed of it.
