JOKE OF THE DAY




Day 68 of being out of work ... Manicurist, Maureen, has kept her skills up with Chuck, the cat. Thanks for the send-in!
more jokes!

ASK THE CAT:

Dear Tabby;
I keep getting lowball offers for jobs that usually pay about twice as much. What should I do to keep my family afloat?

the cat speaks:
Dear Family-Floater:
Well, you must get creative! 'No' is a full sentence but sometimes 'no' isn't a good option. However, if you are mired in bills and have a litter to feed, you must pull out the powerpoint and prove to your future employer why you deserve bonuses. Try to link success you know you'll have, to cash bonuses you know you need. If that doesn't work, downsize to a smaller raft and stay away from deep water. Smooth sailing!
DEBT? YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
