[QUOTE="Aries, post: 4282329, member: 44328"] An older retired gentleman gets hired as a Walmart greeter. He loves the job, everyone loves him, the customers all smile when he greets them, he is great... except he has a habit of showing up about 20 minutes late for work too often. The supervisor finally calls him in and says, "We love your work, the employees love you, the customers love you, you have a great attitude and do a great job. But you have to stop being late occasionally, if I let you get away with that ALL the employees will expect to do that. It has to stop." The older gentleman says, "You're right. That's always been one of my flaws, it's just a bad habit and I need to work on it." The supervisor says, "What did they say to you at your last job when you showed up late like that?" The gentleman said, "They usually just said, 'Good morning, General. May I get your coffee for you sir?'" [/QUOTE]
