Subject: Some of us can relate
One day while walking down the street a highly successful Human Resources
Director was hit by a bus and she died.
Her soul was met at the Pearly gates by St Peter himself. "Welcome to
Heaven", said St Peter." Before you get settled in, it seems we
have a problem. You see, we've never had a Human Resources Director make
it this far and we're not really sure what to do with you". "No
problem, just let me in" said the woman. "Well, I'd like to, but
I have higher orders. What we are going to do is let you have
a day in Hell and a day in Heaven and then you can choose whichever one
you want to spend an eternity in." "Actually, I think I've made
up my mind, I prefer to stay in Heaven", said the woman. "Sorry,
we have rules... " And with that St Peter put the executive in an
elevator and it went down to hell. The doors opened and she found herself
stepping out onto the putting green of a beautiful golf course.
In the distance was a country club and standing in front of her were all
friends - fellow executives that she had worked with and they were all
cheering for her. They ran up and kissed her on both cheeks and talked
about old times. They played an excellent round of golf and at
night went to the country club where she enjoyed an excellent steak and
lobster dinner. She met the Devil who was actually a really nice guy (kinda
cute) and she had a great time telling jokes and dancing. Everybody shook
her hand and waved goodbye as she got in the elevator. The elevator opened
at the Pearly gates and she found St Peter
waiting for her. She spent the next 24 hours lounging around on the clouds
and playing the harp and singing. She had a great time and before she knew
it her 24 hours were up and St Peter came and got her. "So you have
spent a day in hell, and a day in Heaven. Now choose your eternity"
he said. The woman replied: "Well I never thought I would say this, I
mean, Heaven has been really great and all, but I think I had a better
time in Hell." So St Peter escorted her to the elevator and again she
went back to Hell. When the doors opened she found herself standing in a
desolate wasteland covered in garbage and filth. She saw her friends were
dressed in rags and were picking up
the garbage and putting it in sacks. The Devil came up to her and put his
arm around her. "I don't understand," stammered the woman,
"yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and a country club
and we ate lobster and we danced and had a great time. Now all there is
are wastelands and garbage and all my friends look miserable." The
Devil looked at her and smiled. "Yesterday we were recruiting you,
today you're staff....."
