Lesson 1:
A man is getting into the shower just as
his wife is finishing up her shower,
when the doorbell rings.
The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel
and runs downstairs.
When she opens the door, there stands Bob,
the next-door neighbor.
Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll
give you $800 to drop that towel.'[msnwink]
After thinking for a moment, the wife drops
her towel and stands naked in front of Bob,
after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and
leaves.[msnoo]
The woman wraps back up in the towel and
goes back upstairs.
When she gets to the bathroom, her husband
asks, 'Who was that?'
'It was Bob the next door neighbor,' she
replies.
'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say
anything about the $800 he owes me?'[msnembarrased]
Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining
to credit and risk with your shareholders
in time, you may be in a position to
prevent avoidable exposure.[msneek]
Lesson 2:
A sales rep, an administration clerk, and
the manager are walking to lunch when they
find an antique oil lamp.
They rub it and a Genie comes out. The Genie
says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'
'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk.
'I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.'[msnsmile]
Puff! She's gone.
'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep.
'I want to be in Hawaii, relaxing on the
beach with my personal masseuse, an endless
supply of Pena Coladas and the love of my
life.' [msnsmile]
Puff! He's gone.
'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the
manager.
The manager says, 'I want those two back in
the office after lunch.'[msncry]
Moral of the story:
Always let your boss have the first say.[msnmad]
Lesson 3
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting,
doing nothing.
A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked
him, 'Can I also sit like you and do
nothing?'
The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'
So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the
eagle and rested.
All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on
the rabbit and ate it.[msncry]
Moral of the story:
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be
sitting very, very high up.
