I found this today & it made me laugh
To my friends with Children: Why parents drink
The boss wondered why one of his most valued employees who had not missed a day of work ever, phoned in sick one day. Having an urgent problem with one of the main computers, he called the employee's home and was greeted with a child's whisper. " Hello ? "
"Is your daddy home?" he asked.
"yes" whispered the small voice.
May I talk with him?"
The child whispered,
" No ."Surprised and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, "Is your Mommy there?"
" Yes .""May I talk with her?" Again the small voice whispered,
" No ."Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, "Is anybody else there?"
" Yes ," whispered the child,
" a policeman ".
Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked, "May I speak with the policeman?"
" No, he's busy ", whispered the child.
"Busy doing what?"
" Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman ," came the whispered answer.
Growing more worried as he heard a loud noise in the background through the earpiece on the phone, the boss asked, "What is that noise?"
" A helicopter " answered the whispering voice.
"What is going on there?" demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive.
Again, whispering, the child answered,
" The search team just landed a helicopter ."Alarmed, concerned and a little frustrated the boss asked, "What are they searching for?"
Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle...
" ME ."
