Business one-liners

Friday, October 12th, 2007

If you want to get along, go along.

If you want to make an enemy, do someone a favor.

If your next pot of chili tastes better, it probably is because of something left out, rather than added.

Ignorance is bliss. No wonder I’m so depressed.

Illegitimus non Carborundem: “Don’t let the scum bags grind you down”

In a hierarchical organization, the higher the level, the greater the confusion.

In any calculation, any error which can creep in will do so.

In any hierarchy, each individual rises to his own level of incompetence, and then remains there.

In any household, junk accumulates to the the space available for its storage.

In case of doubt, make it sound convincing.

It takes a big man to admit when he’s wrong, and an even bigger one to keep his mouth shut when he’s right.

Impressing the others

Friday, October 12th, 2007

A young Air Force 2nd Lieutenant had just arrived at Misawa AFB in Japan.

He’d been given a beautiful renovated office and had it furnished with antiques.

Sitting there, he saw an enlisted man come into his outer office.

Wishing to appear the hot shot, the officer picked up the phone and started to pretend he was exchanging chit chat with the Base Commander.

He threw Colonel’s and General’s names around and talked about letting them stay in his Daddy’s condo in Hawaii, and then set up a golfing date between him, the Base Commander, and the CO’s of the Naval Security Group and Naval Air Facility.

Finally he hung up and asked the Sergeant, “Can I help you sergeant?”

The TSGT said, “Yes sir, I’m here to activate your phone lines.”

Hilarious Jokes about the Irish

Friday, October 12th, 2007

Two Irish friends greeted each other while waiting their turn at the bank window. “This reminds me of Finnegan,” remarked one.

“What about Finnegan?” inquired the other.

“‘Tis a story that Finnegan died, and when he greeted St. Peter, he said: ‘It’s a fine job you’ve had here for a long time.’ ‘Well, Finnegan,’ said St. Peter, ‘here we count a million years as a minute and a million dollars as a cent.’ ‘Ah!’ said Finnegan, ‘I’m needing cash. Lend me a cent.’ ‘Sure,’ said St. Peter, ‘just wait a minute.’”

Hennessy wasn’t a very good looking fellow to start with. Now his business had failed, and his wife and family had left him. Depressed and distracted, he was standing near the edge of the bridge, contemplating suicide. Suddenly, he sensed that someone was behind him, and turning around he saw an ugly little old leprechaun.

“Don’t jump,” she said, and I’ll grant you three wishes.”

“Right,” he said. “my first wish is to have $100,000.”

She said, “When you check your account, you will find that you are in credit to that amount.”

He then said, “My second wish is to have my wife and children back.”

She said, “They will be there when you get home.”

He said, “My third wish is to be tall and handsome.”

She said, When you look in the mirror, you will find that your wish has been granted.” Then she added, “I want you to do something in return for me. I want you to kiss me.”

He looked at her and shuddered at the thought. But under the circumstances he thought he should do as she wanted. He took her in his arms and kissed her again and again.

She said, “What age are you?”

He replied, “I’m forty.”

She said, “Don’t you think that you’re a bit too old to be believing in leprechauns?”

Women’s instructions

WOMEN’S COMPACT INSTRUCTION BOOK

Never do housework. No man ever made love to a woman because the house was spotless.

Remember you are known by the idiot you accompany.

Don’t imagine you can change a man - unless he’s in diapers.

What do you do if your boyfriend walks out? You shut the door.

So many men - so many reasons not to sleep with any of them.

If they can put a man on the moon - they should be able to put them all there.

Tell him you’re not his type - you have a pulse.

Never let your man’s mind wander - its too little to be left out alone.

Go for younger men. You might as well - they never mature anyway.

Never marry a man for money. You’ll have to earn every penny.

Definition of a bachelor: A man who has missed the opportunity to make some woman miserable.

The best way to get a man to do something is to suggest he is too old for it.

If he asks what sort of books you’re interested in, tell him check books.

A man’s idea of serious commitment is usually, “Oh all right, I’ll stay the night”.

Women sleep with men who, if they were women, they wouldn’t even have bothered to have lunch with.

Remember a sense of humor does not mean that you tell him jokes, it means you laugh at his.

If he asks you if you if you’re faking it tell him no, you’re just practicing.

When he asks you if he’s your first tell him, “You may be, you look familiar.”
