It’s good sportsmanship to not pick up lost golf balls while they are still rolling.

`````````````````

A successful entrepreneur won a business award in the IT field and was asked by a reporter as to how he managed to motivate his workers to come to office on time.

The entrepreneur replied, "Oh, that' easy. I have 45 people working for me but only 44 parking lots without pay. I charge for the last lot.

```````````````

Justin was caught red-handed misappropriating funds of the organization he worked for. So he ran to his lawyer who assured him by saying, "Relax Justin. You will never go to prison with all that wealth!"

The lawyer was right. Actually when Justin was put behind bars, he did not have a penny on him!

````````````

Mr. Jones says angrily to his secretary Mary, "You are late at work twice this week! What is the meaning of this?"

Mary replies, "It means it's only Tuesday!"

```````````

The Admin Head of a large organization called for the new employee to see him in his office.

Once the new employee was seated, the Admin Head asked, "What's your name?"

The new employee replied, "Jonathan."

The Admin Head snapped, "Listen, I have no idea what kind of a place you worked at before, but out here, I call everyone here by their surnames. If I start calling people by their first names, they would start taking things lightly. So, its Smith, Williams, Brown - that's it. Now that I have made myself clear, tell me your last name."

The new employee said, "My last name is Honey."

The Admin Head said, "Okay Jonathan, I will arrange for your orientation and then...."

``````````````

My boss, Mr. Somel was upset with me for coming late to work.

He shouted at me saying, "You should have been here at 9 am."

I replied, "Why? What happened at 9?"

````````````

The Tata group of companies decided to invite bids for their new Power generation plant. They called for bidders, and three companies decided to bid.

At the meeting, the Project Head of the Tata group asked the first bidder to quote his price.

The CEO of the first company who had done his MBA from Symbiosis said, "5 million. 3 mil for material and 2 mil for labour."

The Project Head then asked the CEO of the second company to present his bid.

The CEO of the second company who had done his MBA from NMIMS said, "10 million. 4 mil for material, 3 mil for labour, and another 3 for variable expenses."

The Project Head then asked the CEO of the third company to present his bid.

The CEO of the third company who was a product of IIM said, "15 million."

The project Head yelled, "15 million!!! What is the breakdown of costs?"

The CEO of the third company replied, "5 million for you. 5 for me. And 5 mil to get the fellow from Symbiosis to do the project."

````````````````

Gabriel was a late-comer. He would always be late to work and had been reprimanded many times by his boss, Mr. Ambrose. The problem with Gabriel was that he just could not get himself to leave the bed in the morning. When he was late once again during the busy last week of the month, Mr. Ambrose gave him a final warning, "One more time you are late, and you are permanently out of here."

Gabriel went to see a doctor and narrated his predicament. The doctor gave him a few medicines and asked him to take it after meals.

Gabriel felt relaxed and got up early in the morning. He had a hearty breakfast and made it to his office before time.

The moment he saw Mr. Ambrose walk in, Gabriel said, "Well Mr. Ambrose, I will not give you a reason to get upset again. I feel fresh as a Daisy!"

"That's okay" said Mr. Ambrose, "But why were you not in office yesterday?"

`````````````

Joe, I can't imagine a day without you opening the diner. It is always a highlight even if we don't chat all day. hearts

Just got back from watching my Hawks lose the season. What a miserable game.

James comes today for the weekend. Can't wait to play with my little munchkin!

Have a happy day Joe, MaG, soot and all!

Good morning MaG, Soot, Ana, Gerry, Midgie, Conny, and everyone. wave2

Thanks guys for the support comments. thanks

I know that no one sits here all day long looking at the diner, although I think many of us used to do that. yes

Sometimes though I feel almost like I'm talking to myself. smirk

I tried posting the same stuff on Facebook, but it's certainly not the same as posting here at Gameboomers. I didn't get the feedback, like I get here, and I don't think people got my humor, so I quit posting there.

It's a beautiful morning here, and I don't have many specific plans. I have to go to Walmart and get a new toaster, because mine gave up the ghost, and will not toast.

I have ordered a carport, which will be delivered and installed next Tuesday. bravo

In the mean time, today's forecast calls for 99% chance of damaging afternoon thunderstorms, with large hail. rolleyes

I hope that doesn't happen.

Have a super day everyone. wave2

Joe,

Never doubt --- you are needed here and appreciated. You bring smiles and warmth to the forum (by your presence and posts) - not just Mixed Bags. Knowing that you are there is a staple of our daily GB life. kissy

Our attendance fluctuates by day, by hour and by circumstances. GB was very popular then but we have cut down a lot. It is still up because we all need a place, a home with our friends. That is what I was told anyways. So we still have a GB and we have Joe's Diner. We do this because we have friends here that need us. hearts

Honestly, all forums have had a huge reduction in posters. Between all the different modes of communication these days, it is spread out. But I appreciate the diner and GameBoomers very much. It's a part of my day just like my morning cup of coffee. hearts

MaG, love you! kissy

Joe, don't you dare close the diner! It's the only thing that wakes me up in the morning, laughing at the jokes and your tales of arrowheads and dogs.

I have also noticed that not many people are around lately. Probably like me, doing other things outside that needed doing. Now that the weather is getting nicer, I'm outside a LOT. Things to tend to, cats to herd. Always busy busy and I'm getting growls from my friends who say I'm not answering my phone. Can't keep taking off dirty gloves, running into the house from the 'back 40' and then slipping on or tripping over something, (usually a critter) and nearly killing myself.

Don't worry Joe, we are all still around and just being sooooo lazy when it comes to keeping up with all the social media. Tires me out for sure.
