[Friday Joke] The Talking Parrot. A man goes to a pet shop and buys a talking parrot. He takes the parrot home and tries to teach the parrot how to say a few things, but instead, the parrot just swears at him. After a few hours of this, the man finally gets fed up and throws the parrot into the freezer to teach it a lesson. He hears the parrot squawking and kicking for a few minutes, but then all goes quiet. The man opens the freezer up, the parrot calmly steps out onto the man’s outstretched arm and says, “I believe l may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I’ll endeavor to correct my behavior.” The man is astounded. As he’s about to ask the parrot what’s caused this sudden change in attitude, the parrot continues, “May I ask what the turkey did?”

Submarine designed with women in mind joins U.S. Navy fleet. The USS New Jersey made waves when it was commissioned — the first submarine in the U.S. Navy’s fleet designed specifically with women in mind. The Navy lifted the ban on women on submarines back in 2010, retrofitting bathrooms and sleeping quarters to accommodate them. The New Jersey’s crew, however, is historic. For many years all combat commands were given over the PA using a woman’s voice because it got men’s attention more than any other thing they tried.  Video

[Friday Joke] The new CEO decides it’s time to rid the company of slackers. On a tour of the facilities, he notices a guy leaning against a wall. The room was full of workers. Seeing a chance to show he meant business, he says to the guy, ‘How much money do you make a week?‘ A little surprised, the young man says, ‘I make $400. Why?‘
The CEO says, ‘Wait right here.‘ He walks back to his office and comes back in two minutes. He hands the guy $1,600 in cash and says, ‘Here’s four weeks‘ pay. Now get out and don’t come back?
Feeling like a boss now, the CEO looks around and says, “Does anyone want to tell me what that goofball’s job was around here?”
From across the room, a voice says, “Pizza delivery guy from Domino’s.”
