I Got this in an email just now and I had to share it, it's the first thing to make me smile this morning :D
The boss wondered why one of his most valued employees had not phoned in sick one day. Having an urgent problem with one of the main computers, he dialed the employee's home phone number 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?"
"
" whispered the child, "a policeman " whispered the child, "May I speak with the policeman?".
Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked, " No, he's busy "
"Busy doing what?", whispered the child.
" Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman ," "What is that noise?" 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, " A helicopter "
"What ! Is going on there?" answered the whispering voice.
" The search team just landed a helicopter ." demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive.
Again, whispering, the child answered, "What are they searching for?"
Alarmed, concerned and a little frustrated the boss asked, " ME .
