Timecards

TO: ALL PERSONNEL

FROM: ACCOUNTING

It has come to our attention recently that many of you have been turning in timesheets that specify large amounts of Miscellaneous Unproductive Time (Code 5309). To our department, unproductive time isnt a problem. What is a problem, however, is not knowing exactly what you are doing during your unproductive time. Attached below is a sheet specifying a tentative extended job code list based on our observations of employee activities.

The list will allow you to specify with a fair amount of precision what you are doing during your unproductive time. Please begin using this job code list immediately and let us know about any difficulties you encounter.

Thank you,

Accounting.

500$

A
small zoo in Alabama acquires a rare gorilla, who quickly
becomes agitated. The zookeeper determines that the
female ape is in heat, but there are no male apes available
for mating.
The zookeeper approaches a redneck janitor with a
proposition. “Would you be willing to have sex
with this gorilla for $500?” he asks.
The janitor accepts the offer, but only on three
conditions: “First, I don’t want to have
to kiss her. And second, you can never tell anyone
about this.” The zookeeper agrees to the conditions
and asks about the third.
“Well,” says the janitor, “I’m
gonna need another week to come up with the $500.”

The hunter told the cannibal chief prices were way too high for hillbillies.

Oh yeah, said the chief, you ever try to clean one of them?
