At times humor is the only answer. Corporate lessons.......
Corporate lesson 1:
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her
shower when the doorbell rings.
After a few seconds of arguing over which one should go and answer the
doorbell, the wife gives up, quickly wraps herself up 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 dollars to drop that
towel that you have on." 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.
Confused, but excited about her good fortune, the woman wraps back up in
the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets back to the bathroom, her
husband asks from the shower, "Who was that?"

"It was Bob the next door neighbor," she replies.
"Great," the husband says, "did he say anything about the 800 dolla
rs he
owes me?" 

Moral of the story:

If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk in time
with your stakeholders, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable
exposure 


Corporate lesson 2:

A priest was driving along and saw a nun on the side of the road, he
stopped and offered her a lift which she accepted. She got in and crossed
her legs, forcing her gown to open and reveal a lovely leg. The priest had a
look 
and nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid
his 
hand up her leg. The nun looked at him and immediately said, "Father,
remember psalm 129?" The priest was flustered and apologized profusely. He
forced himself to remove his hand. However, he was unable to remove his
eyes from her leg. Further on while changing gear, he let his hand slide
up her leg again. The nun once again said, "Father, remember psalm 129?"
Once again the priest apologized."Sorry sister but the flesh is weak."

Arriving at the convent, the nun got
 out gave him a meaningful glance and
went on her way. On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to
retrieve a bible and  looked up psalm 129. It Said, "Go forth and seek,
further 
up, you will find glory."

Moral of the story:
Always be well informed in your job, or you might miss a great
opportunity!

Bahamas,driving a speedboat, without a care in the world." Poo

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.

"OK, you're up," the Genie says to the manager.
The manager says, "I want those two back in the office after lunch."
