CEO's have all the fun...
One afternoon, the CEO of a very large corporation was riding in his limousine when he saw two men on the side of the road, on their hands and knees, eating grass.
Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and got out to investigate.
He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?"
"We don't have any money for food," the poor man replied. "We have to eat grass."
"Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll feed you," the CEO of the very large corporation said.
"But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there, under that tree."
"Bring them along," the CEO of the very large corporation replied.
Turning to the other poor man he stated, "You may come with us, also." The second man, in a pitiful voice, then said, "But sir, I also have a wife and six children with me!"
"Bring them all as well," the CEO of the very large corporation answered.
They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as the limousine.
Once under way, one of the poor fellows turned to the CEO of the very large corporation and said, "Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you. "
The CEO of the very large corporation replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love my place. The grass is almost a foot high."

And did they?
I have no idea, Vesty. ;-)
A joke pedant left an anonymous (quelle surprise) comment, pointing out that a common version of this joke features a lawyer. S/he clearly has no idea what I meant by "adapted for this blog". Tragic... :-(
I have returned.
Glad to see you're still around, Vesty. Sorry for the delay in posting your comment, but I've been absent from this blog for a while. Might get back to posting here again soon.
ARE YOU OK>
But aren't corporate executives genetically superior to the rest of us?
Fowl Ideas, yes, they are clearly genetically superior. It's the only logical explanation for their hubris.
Vesty, I'm still here. I just got really bored with blogging. Thanks for your concern. Hope you are well.
Arseholes who think like that CEO have exactly the character that gets them to the 'top'.
I am just thinking of all the CEOs who have crashed and burned and know that in the end they pay for exploiting the workers, government, etc. Wish you only good things during 2014 aka twennyfordeen
M Stacks aka AnnOdyne.

Sorry it took me so long to post your comment, HB. I rarely look at blogger anymore... Better to email me.
All the very best to you too, H. :-)
