Those moments when the perfect comment is made....

Ever witnessed or made one? Company I worked for years ago had a bookkeeper who could be a real PITA.

She was getting on to some of us for something one day.

She grabs a broom and says, "If you don't do things like I told you I am going to take this broom and..."

She was interrupted by a co-worker who asked, "Fly away?"

She left in a huff and everyone laughed until we cried.

LMFAO...that's awesome.

I shut up an employee real quick one day. He was well known for asking stupid questions that he should've already known the answer to. So one day he says "Can I ask a stupid question?" and I said "Better than anybody I know!" He didn't talk for a good hour after that. :24:

Life must be so dull when you can't take a joke

I can't take credit, though...I stole it from Bea Arthur.

The guy who takes care of the traffic signals and signage for our city works out of the other end of the same building we do. He is such a talker, many of his stories are greatly embellished. Yesterday, during afternoon coffee break, he started out by saying; "I want to tell you a little story." I blurted out; "Butch, you haven't told a little story in your life!" Didn't faze him.

A hot sweaty day in the summer of '78, out for a family drive and lost in the backwoods of Sussex. Father was getting tense, we were all getting thirsty and tetchy....We stopped at the side of a ploughed field. Mother pointed across the furrows, and said...."If we go that way, will we come to Brighton?"

Father paused for a second, lit his pipe, and looked at her as if she were a tiny bit simple, and said.............










...."No dear, we'll come to grief."
