There was a job opening in the country's
most prestigious law firm and it finally comes down to Robert and Paul.
Both graduated with magna cum laude
from law school. Both come from good families. Both are equally attractive and
well-spoken. It's up to the senior partner to choose one, so he takes each
aside and asks, "Why did you become a lawyer?"
In seconds, he chooses Paul.
Baffled, Robert takes Paul aside.
"I don't understand why I was
rejected. When Mr. Armstrong asked me why I became a lawyer, I said that I had
the greatest respect for the law, that I'd lay down my life for the
Constitution, and that all I wanted was to do right by my clients. What in the
world did you tell him?"
"I said I became a lawyer because
of my hands," Robert replies.
"Your hands? What do you mean?"
"Well, I took a look one day and
there wasn't any money in either of them!"
Son: Mom, when I was on the bus with
Dad this morning, he told me to give up my seat to a lady.
Mom: Well, you have done the right
thing.
Son: But Mom, she was sitting on
Daddy's lap!
Mary's fourth-grade homework assignment
was to make sentences using the words in her spelling list, along with the
definition. Coming across the word "frugal" on the list, she asked
her father what it meant.
He explained that being frugal meant
you saved something.
Her paper read: "Frugal: to save."
Sentence: "Maid Marion fell into a
pit when she went walking in the woods so she yelled for someone to come get
her out. She yelled 'Frugal me, Frugal me!'"
A young lawyer, starting up his private practice, was
very anxious to impress potential clients. When he saw the first visitor to his
office come through the door, he immediately picked up his phone and spoke into
it," I'm sorry, but my caseload is so tremendous that I'm not going to be
able to look into your problem for at least a month. I'll have to get back to
you then." He then turned to the man who had just walked in and said,
"Now, what can I do for you?"
"Nothing," replied the man. "I'm here to hook up your phone!"
A man goes to see his bank manager one
day and says: "I'd like to start a small business. How do I go about it?"
"That's simple," replies the bank manager.
"All you have to do is buy a big one and wait!"
I never got a hole in one - but I did hit a guy, and
that is far more satisfying. You're supposed to yell 'Fore' but I was too busy
mumbling. There ain't no way that I'm gonna hit him.
Joe said, "Know what, Charlie? I killed 5 flies
yesterday, 3 males and 2 females."
"How could you tell them apart, Joe? asked
Charlie.
"Joe replied, "It was easy. The 3 males
were sitting on a case of beer, and the 2 females were on the phone."
Biology Teacher: Did you know that you have 60,000
miles of blood vessels in your body?
Little Johnny: No wonder I have tired blood.
How
many physical chemists does it take to wash a beaker?
None. That's what organic chemists are for!
Q: What weapon can you make from the chemicals,
Potassium, Nickel and Iron?
A: KNiFe.
The
next time you get a rejection letter from a hoped-for employer, just send them
the following:
Dear [name of the person who signed the rejection
letter],
Thank you for your letter of [date of the rejection
letter]. After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable
to accept your refusal to offer me [job title].
This year I have been particularly fortunate in
receiving an unusually large number of rejection letters. With such a varied
and promising field of candidates, it is impossible for me to accept all
refusals. Despite [name of the company that sent you this letter]'s outstanding
qualifications and previous experience in rejecting [applicants/manuscripts], I
find that your rejection does not meet with my needs at this time.
Therefore, I will initiate employment with your firm
immediately following [graduation/job change, etc. - get creative here]. I look
forward to working with you.
Best of luck in rejecting future candidates.
Sincerely,
[Your name]
