Unemployed YardWork Fanatic

    by: Zoo - Salted and Roasted Author IconMail Icon
Bill drove up to the house and parked his car in the garage. He got out and entered the house through the garage, when he heard the phone ringing. HE rushed to get it and said "Hello?"

"Hello, Bill?"

"Yeah, this is Bill"

"Bill this is Mr. Corrales down at the plant, we've been trying to get in touch with you. Why havent you been in to work this week?"

"Well, I had a little problem with my yard," Bill began, wishing he'd called in. " It grew a little too high and I had to do something about it. It was sort of an emergency."

" Your yard? It was an emergency? Come on Bill. You stayed home to do yardwork and you didnt even bother to call in. "

" Well, its not that simple really, my grass actually grew ten feet overni----" Bill was cutoff by his boss.

"I dont really care to hear it Bill. We're sick of your insubordination anyway. This was the last straw. I came by earlier this morning and left a box of your things from the plant on your front porch. Maybe if you had spent a little more time worrying about your job than you did your yardwork, this wouldn't have happened. You're fired Bill. Good-bye." And with that, the phone went dead in Bill's hand and he stood there with a frown on his face.

"Great."
