A customer sent an order to a distributor for a large amount of goods totaling a great deal of money.

When you’re on a workplace training course, think of it like this:
When you start the course, you are on-course.
When you’re in the middle of the course, that’s group intercourse.

The boss is finally old enough to retire from the company. On his last day of work, he ordered a farewell party for himself. The boss wanted everyone to express their good feeling about him by writing on the farewell card, so later he could remember how his staff “miss” him. Most people are writing standard phrases like, “Without you, the company will never be the same,”
“We will always remember you,” etc.
Obviously the boss was not satisfied. “I need something from the bottom of your heart, something really touching, you know. Okay, John, you have been working with me for the last 20 years. You are my best staff. I am retiring now. What do you have to say?”
Slowly but firmly, John wrote, “The best news in 20 years.”

“Thanks, boss,” says Smith “I knew I could count on you!”

A man went to a pet shop to purchase a parrot. When he entered the pet shop, he noticed that there are three identical parrots and so he asked the store owner about the cost of those parrots. The store owner pointed the first parrot and said that its worth is $500. The man then asked why it is so expensive. The owner said that the parrot can do a lot of things, especially operating the computer.
The man pointed the second parrot and the shop owner told him that the second parrot costs $1000. The man was deeply surprised and asked for explanation why it is very expensive. The owner said that the second parrot can do all the things that the first parrot can. Aside from that, it also knows how to use the UNIX operating system.
The man pointed out to the last parrot and he cannot believe that the cost of the third parrot is $2000. The man then asked the owner, “What can it do?” The shop owner replied and said “well I never seen that parrot doing a thing, but the two parrots call him boss!”
