Corporate lessons - Quite Original

>Corporate 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 neighbour. Before she says
>a word, Bob says, "I'll give you $800 to drop that towel,"
>
>After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked
>in
>front of Bob.
>After a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 dollars and leaves.
>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 neighbour," she replies.
>"Great!" the husband says, "did he say anything about the $800 he owes
me?"
>
>Moral of the story: If you share critical information pertaining to

>The priest removed his hand.
>But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.
>The nun once again said, "Father, remember Psalm 129?"
>The priest apologized "Sorry sister but the flesh is weak."

>Corporate Lesson 3:
>A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to

>"Me first! Me first!" says the admin. clerk.
>"I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat, without a care in the
>world." Poof! 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 Pina Coladas
>and the love of my life." Poof! He's gone.

>Corporate Lesson 4:
>A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day.
>A rabbit asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day

>sitting
>very high up.

>Corporate Lesson 5:
>A turkey was chatting with a bull.

>turkey, but I haven't got the energy."
>"Well, why don't you nibble on my droppings?" replied the bull. "They're
>packed with nutrients."
>The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it gave him enough
>strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.
>The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.

The color of immortality, nature and envy - you are truly a unique person. While clearly the color of nature, you also symbolize rebirth, fertility and hope in the world. On the other side of the spectrum, a natural aptitude to money with green coming to signify money and possibly even *********!
