Since we have a fairly new CFO...
CEO Party
A CEO (and member of Forbes .000400!) throwing a party takes his executives on a tour
of his opulent
mansion. In the back of the property, the CEO has the largest swimming pool any of
them has ever seen.
The huge pool(shaped like a bagel), however, is filled with hungry alligators(us the stock holders). The CEO says to his executives
"I think an
executive should be measured by courage. Courage is what made me CEO. So this is
my challenge to each
of you: if anyone has enough courage to dive into the pool, swim through those
alligators, and make it to
the other side, I will give that person anything they desire. My job, my money, my
house, anything!"
Everyone laughs at the outrageous offer and proceeds to follow the CEO on the tour of
the estate.
Suddenly, they hear a loud splash. Everyone turns around and sees the CFO (Chief
Financial Officer) in
the pool, swimming for his life. He dodges the alligators left and right and makes it to the
edge of the
pool with seconds to spare. He pulls himself out just as a huge alligator snaps at his
shoes. The
flabbergasted CEO approaches the CFO and says, "You are amazing. I've never seen
anything like it in
my life. You are brave beyond measure and anything I own is yours. Tell me what I can
do for you."
The CFO, panting for breath, looks up and says, "You can tell me who the he** pushed
me in the pool!!" |
