The Haircut
One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut.
After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the
barber replied, 'I
cannot accept money from you; I'm doing
community service this week.
The florist was pleased and left the shop.
When the barber went to open his shop the next
morning, there was a
'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for
him at his door.
Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he
tries to pay his
bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept
money from you; I'm
doing community service this week.' The cop was
happy and left the
shop.
The next morning when the barber went to open
up, there were a 'thank
you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at
his door.
Then a Congressman came in for a haircut, and
when he went to pay his
bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept
money from you; I'm
doing community service this week.' The
Congressman was very happy and
left the shop.
The next morning, when the barber went to open
up, there were a dozen
Congressmen lined up waiting for a free haircut.
And that, my friends, illustrates the
fundamental difference between
the citizens of our country and the politicians
who run it.
As Ronald Reagan said: "BOTH POLITICIANS AND
DIAPERS NEED TO BE
CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON!"
Nice.
Would those be the same congressmen who voted to pay Herring a generous
pension for his years filling a military sinecure with no measurable
work output?
You certainly have a caviler attitude about someone who was putting
his ass on the line while you were sitting in a safe office writing ad
copy
I know those paper cuts can be vicious.
