Asking For A Pay Raise
A man asked his boss for a raise in salary.
The boss replied,
“What do you mean? Give you a raise? You don't work here at
all.”
“Listen: there are 365 in the year - 366 this year, because it's a Leap Year.
The working day is 8 hours - that's one third of a day, so over the year that's
122 days.
The office is shut on Sundays so that's 52 off, making 70 days.
Then you have two weeks' holiday - take off 14 days which leaves 56.
There are four Bank Holidays which leaves 52.
Then the office is closed on Saturdays - isn't it?
Well, there are 52 Saturdays in the year - so you don't do anything here at all.”
“Yet
you're asking me for a raise?”
