CAN’T AFFORD TIME OFF
Jim was such a good worker, he had just received another raise in pay. But when his brother called him and asked how things were going, Jim said that things were not going so well. His brother was surprised and said that he had heard about the raise. Jim agreed that he had received a sizable raise and enjoyed his job. His brother asked him what the problem was, then. Jim answered, “I’ll tell you what bothers me. I’m making so much money now that I can’t afford to take a day off.” Adapted from a submission by Carey Barnett, Beaumont, California
