Hold onto your staplers and straighten those tie clips, because we're about to deliver a PowerPoint presentation of pure comedy gold that would make any dad's khakis crease with pride!

Phil walks into his boss's office one day and says, "Sir, I'll be honest with you. I know the economy isn't great, but I've got three companies after me, and I'd like to ask for a raise, respectfully." After a few minutes of haggling, the boss finally agrees to give him a 5 percent raise, and he happily gets up to leave. "By the way," the boss asks as Phil leaves his office, "which three companies are after you?" Phil replies, "The electric company, water company, and phone company."
The boss says, "This is the third time you've been late for work this week. Do you know what that means?" Me: That it's only Wednesday?

An employee is getting to know her new coworkers when the topic of her last job comes up. One coworker asks why she left that job.

I went for a job interview. The interviewer told me I'd start on $2,000 a month, and then after six months, I'd be on $2,500 a month. I told them I would start in 6 months.

I went for a job interview today and the interviewer asked me, “What would you consider to be your main strengths and weaknesses?”.

I en-quire-d about his D-ream last night, but the conversation folded about then

Ever since they threatened to fire me.
Before that, it was more like a version of "Friends with benefits" . A pretty boring version, I agree ...
