One day, this top HR executive dies and goes to heaven. At the pearly gates,
she greets St.Peter and he seemed a bit confused. She graciously asked him to
let her in. St. Peter said, "Well, I can't just yet. You see, we have never had
this happen before." The executive asked, "What do you mean? You have to let me
in!" St. Peter kindly explained that there has never been an executive come to
heaven so a rule was made up to let the executive decide her fate. She had to
spend one day in heaven, then one day in hell...after which, she would choose
which she liked the best. The executive really knew she wanted heaven but went
along with the rule. During her day in heaven, she played the harp, floated on
clouds, met all the saints and had a heavenly day. The next day, St. Peter put
her on an elevator where she went down, down, down and when the door opened,
the executive could not believe her eyes. All her friends were there to greet
her. They were wearing the best designer clothing, the entire place had
beautiful landscaping, gazebos, a huge golf and country club. She met the devil
and actually thought he was a great guy. She ate steak and lobster, drank wine
and danced the night away. So, after that she had come back to St. Peter and
she said, "while I thought I liked to live an eternity in heaven, don't get me
wrong, it is lovely, but I decided that hell was the best place for me." With
that, she was sent back down the elevator but, this time when the doors opened,
she saw nothing but desolate waste land, litter everywhere, her friends looked
ragged and miserable. They were cleaning up the mess. Her jaw dropped and she
asked the devil why the place looked so different..his response, "Yesterday we
were recruiting, today you're staff!"
