- One day while walking down the street a highly successful executive woman
was tragically hit by a bus and she died. Her soul arrived up in heaven where
she was met at the Pearly Gates by St. Peter himself.
"Welcome to Heaven," said St.Peter. "Before you get settled in though,
it seems we have a problem. You see, strangely enough, we've never once had an
executive make it this farand we're not really sure what to do with you."
"No problem, just let me in." said the woman.
"Well, I'd like to, but I have higher orders. What we're going to do is let
you have a day in Hell and a day in Heaven and then you can choose whichever
one you want to spend an eternity in."
"Actually, I think I've made up my mind...I prefer to stay in Heaven",
said the woman.
"Sorry, we have rules..." And with that St. Peter put the executive in an
elevator and it went down-down-down to hell.
The doors opened and she found herself stepping out onto the putting green
of a beautiful golf course. In the distance was a country club and standing
in front of her were all her friends - fellow executives that she had worked
with and they were all dressed in evening gowns and cheering for her. They
ran up and kissed her on both cheeks and they talked about old times. They
played an excellent round of golf and at night went to the country club
where she enjoyed an excellent steak and lobster dinner. She met the Devil
who was actually a really nice guy (kinda cute) and she had a great time
telling jokes and dancing. She was having such a good time that before she
knew it, it was time to leave. Everybody shook her hand and waved good-bye
as she got on the elevator.
The elevator went up-up-up and opened back up at the Pearly Gates and found
St. Peter waiting for her. "Now it's time to spend a day in heaven," he said.
So she spent the next 24 hours lounging around on clouds and playing the harp
and singing. She had a great time and before she knew it her 24 hours were up
and St. Peter came and got her.
"So, you've spent a day in hell and you've spent a day in heaven. Now you
must choose your eternity," he said.
The woman paused for a second and then replied, "Well, I never thought I'd say
this, I mean, Heaven has been really great and all, but I think I had a
better time in Hell."
So St. Peter escorted her to the elevator and again she went down-down-down
back to Hell. When the doors of the elevator opened she found herself standing
in a desolate wasteland covered in garbage and Filth. She saw her friends were
dressed in rags and were picking up the garbage and putting it in sacks. The
Devil came up to her and put his arm around her. "I don't understand,"
stammered the woman, "yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and a
country club and we ate lobster and we danced and had a great time. Now all
there is a wasteland of garbage and all my friends look miserable."
The Devil looked at her and smiled. "Yesterday we were recruiting you;
today you're staff."
- We've all been interviewed for jobs. And, we've all spent most of those
interviews thinking about what not to do. Don't bite your nails. Don't fidget.
Don't interrupt. Don't belch. If we did any of the don'ts, we knew we'd
disqualify ourselves instantly.
But some job applicants go light years beyond this. We surveyed top personnel
executives of 100 major American corporations and asked for stories of unusual
behaviour by job applicants.
The lowlights:
1. "... stretched out on the floor to fill out the job application."
2. "She wore a Walkman and said she could listen to me and the music at the
same time."
3. " A balding candidate abruptly excused himself. Returned to office a few
minutes later, wearing a hairpiece."
4. "... asked to see interviewer's resume to see if the personnel executive
was qualified to judge the candidate."
5. "... announced she hadn't had lunch and proceeded to eat a hamburger and
French fries in the interviewer's office - wiping the ketchup on her sleeve"
6. "Stated that, if he were hired, he would demonstrate his loyalty by having
the corporate logo tattooed on his forearm."
7. "Interrupted to phone his therapist for advice on answering specific
interview questions."
8. "When I asked him about his hobbies, he stood up and started tap dancing
around my office."
9. "At the end of the interview, while I stood there dumbstruck, he went
through my purse, took out a brush, brushed his hair, and left."
10. "... pulled out a Polaroid camera and snapped a flash picture of me. Said
he collected photos of everyone who interviewed him."
11. "Said he wasn't interested because the position paid too much."
12. "While I was on a long-distance phone call, the applicant took out a
copy of Penthouse, and looked through the photos only, stopping longest
at the centerfold."
13. "During the interview, an alarm clock went off from the candidate's brief
case. He took it out, shut it off, apologized and said he had to leave for
another interview."
14. "A telephone call came in for the job applicant. It was from his wife. His
side of the conversation went like this: "Which company? When do I start?
What's the salary?" I said, "I assume you're not interested in conducting the
interview any further." He promptly responded, "I am as long as you'll pay me
more. "I didn't hire him, but later found out there was no other job offer.
It was a scam to get a higher offer."
15. "His attaché [case] opened when he picked it up and the contents spilled,
revealing ladies' undergarments and assorted makeup and perfume."
16. "Candidate said he really didn't want to get a job, but the unemployment
office needed proof that he was looking for one."
17. "... asked who the lovely babe was, pointing to the picture on my desk.
When I said it was my wife, he asked if she was home now and wanted my phone
number. I called security."
18. "Pointing to a black case he carried into my office, he said that if he
was not hired, the bomb would go off. Disbelieving, I began to state why he
would never be hired and that I was going to call the police. He then reached
down to the case, flipped a switch and ran. No one was injured, but I did
need to get a new desk."
- The owner of a large factory decided to make a surprise visit and check up
on his staff. Walking though the plant, he noticed a young man leaning
lazily against a post.
"Just how much are you being paid a week?" said the owner angrily.
"Three hundred bucks," replied the young man.
Taking out a fold of bills from his wallet, the owner counted out $300,
slapped the money into the boy's hands, and said "Here's a week's pay -- now
get out and don't come back!"
Turning to one of the supervisors, he said "How long has that lazy bum been
working here anyway?"
"He doesn't work here," said the supervisor. "He was just here to deliver a
pizza!"

- A businessman walked into a New York City bank and asked for the loan
officer. He said he was going to Europe on business for two weeks and needed
to borrow $5,000. The loan officer said the bank would need some security
for such a loan.
The business man then handed over the keys to a Rolls Royce that was parked on
the street in front of the bank. Everything checked out and the loan officer
accepted the car as collateral for the loan. An employee then drove the Rolls
into the bank's underground garage and parked it there. Two weeks later the
businessman returned, repaid the $5,000 and the interest which came to $15.41.
The loan officer said, 'We do appreciate your business and this transaction
has worked out very nicely, but we are a bit puzzled. While you were away we
checked and found that you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles us is why you
would bother to borrow $5,000?'
The business man replied: 'Where else in New York City can I park my car for
2 weeks for 15 bucks?'
- A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day.
A small rabbit saw the crow, and asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do
nothing all day long?"
The crow answered, "Sure, why not."
So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow, and rested. All of a sudden,
a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Moral of the story is: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting
very, very high up.
- 12 tips from workforce to managers
1. Never give me work in the morning. Always wait until 5:00 and then bring it
to me. The challenge of a deadline is refreshing.
2. If it's really a "rush job," run in and interrupt me every 10 minutes to
inquire how it's going. That helps.
3. Always leave without telling anyone where you're going. It gives me a
chance to be creative when someone asks where you are.
4. If my arms are full of papers, boxes, books or supplies, don't open the
door for me. I need to learn how to function as a paraplegic and this is good
training.
5. If you give me more than one job to do, don't tell me which is the
priority. Let me guess.
6. Do your best to keep me late. I like the office and really have nowhere to
go or anything to do. Beside, having no life will help repair me for making
partner.
7. If a job I do pleases you, keep it a secret. Leaks like that could cost me
a promotion.
8. If you don't like my work, tell everyone. I like my name to be popular in
conversation.
9. If you have special instructions for a job, don't write them down. In fact,
save them until the job is almost done.
10. Never introduce me to the people you're with. When you refer to them
later, my shrewd deduction powers will identify them.
11. Be nice to me only when the job I'm doing for you could really change your
life.
12. Tell me all your little problems. None of us have any and it's nice to
know someone is less fortunate.
