[Friday Joke] The dockhand says, “I’m sorry, sir, but I can’t let you dine here today. This establishment has a necktie policy, and you are not wearing one.” “Of course I don’t have a tie on,” replied the sailor, “I’m on a boat!” “Well, go down below and put one on,” said the dockhand. “I don’t HAVE one!” shouted the sailor. The dockhand, not wanting to turn away a customer, said: “Well, why don’t you just find something that approximates a tie. That should be OK.” After some time, the sailor comes out with a pair of jumper cables looped around his neck. “This is all I could find to put around my neck,” he said. Sighing, the dockhand said: “OK, I’ll let you in with those, but just don’t start anything.” |

[Friday Joke] Our complaints against your husband are listed below and are documented by Target’s video surveillance cameras: 1. June 15: He took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in other people’s carts when they weren’t looking. 2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals. 3. July 7: He made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women’s restroom. 4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, “Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away.” This caused the employee to leave her assigned station and receive a reprimand from her supervisor that in turn resulted with a union grievance, causing management to lose time and costing the company money. We don’t have a Code 3. 5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&Ms on layaway. 6. August 14: Moved a ‘CAUTION – WET FLOOR’ sign to a carpeted area. 7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told the children shoppers he’d invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department to which twenty children obliged. 8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, ‘Why can’t you people just leave me alone?’ EMTs were called. 9. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose. 10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were. 11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while, loudly humming the, ‘Mission Impossible’ theme. 12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his, ‘Madonna Look’ using different sizes of funnels. 13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled, “Pick me! pick me!’ 14. October 22: When an announcement came over the loudspeaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed, “Oh no! it’s those voices again!” 15. Took a box of condoms to the checkout clerk and asked, “Where is the fitting room?” 16. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile; then yelled very loudly, ‘Hey! There’s no toilet paper in here.’ One of the clerks passed out. |
