The Coffee Shop / Gotta Love Shopping at Costco
« on: December 11, 2012, 03:33:16 pm »


Shopping at COSTCO

One day, in line at the company cafeteria, Joe says to Mike behind him, "My elbow hurts like hell. I guess I'd better see a doctor."

"Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money," Mike replies

"There's a diagnostic computer down at Costco/(Price Smart). Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong and what to do about it.

It takes ten seconds and costs ten dollars - A lot cheaper than a doctor."

So, Joe deposits a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Costco.

He deposits ten dollars and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample.... He pours the sample into the slot and waits..

Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout:

"You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity.. It will improve in two weeks. Thank you for shopping @ Costco..."

That evening, while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Joe began wondering if the computer could be fooled.

He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sperm sample from himself for good measure.

Joe hurries back to Costco, eager to check the results.. He deposits ten dollars, pours in his concoction, and awaits the results .


The computer prints the following:

?Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener. (Aisle 9)

?Your dog has ringworm.. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo.. (Aisle 7)

?Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab.

?Your wife is pregnant. Twins. They aren't yours... Get a lawyer.

?If you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never get better!

?Thank you for shopping @ Costco!

Merry Christmas y'all   ;D ;D ;D

Christmas party

   

This is priceless and, unfortunately, too close to the truth.
Have a laugh!

RE:       Gala Christmas Party
I'm happy to inform you that the company Christmas Party will take place on December 23rd, starting at noon in the private function room at the Grill House. There will be a cash bar and plenty of drinks!  We'll have a small band playing traditional carols... feel free to sing along.  And don't be surprised if our CEO shows up dressed as Santa Claus! A Christmas tree will be lit at 1:00 PM.  Exchanges of gifts among employees can be done at that time; however, no gift should be over $10.00 to make the giving of gifts easy for everyone's pockets.  This gathering is only for employees!
Our CEO will make a special announcement at that time!
Merry Christmas to you and your family,
Patty

RE:       Gala Holiday Party
 
In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude our Jewish employees.  We recognize that  Hanukkah is an important holiday, which often coincides with Christmas, though unfortunately not this year.  However, from now on,  we're calling it our "Holiday Party."  The same policy applies to any other employees who are not Christians and to those still celebrating Reconciliation Day.  There will be no Christmas tree and no Christmas carols will be sung.  We will have other types of music for your enjoyment.
Happy now?
Happy Holidays to you and your family,
Patty

RE:        Holiday Party

Regarding the note I received from a member of Alcoholics Anonymous requesting a non-drinking table, you didn't sign your name.  I'm happy to accommodate this request, but if I put a sign on a table that  reads, "AA Only", you wouldn't be anonymous anymore.  How am I supposed to handle this?
Somebody?
And sorry, but forget about the gift exchange, no gifts are allowed since the union members feel that $10.00 is too much money and the executives believe $10.00 is a little chintzy.
REMEMBER: NO GIFTS EXCHANGE WILL BE ALLOWED.

RE:        Generic Holiday Party
 
What a diverse group we are!  I had no idea that December 20th begins the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which forbids eating and drinking during daylight hours.  There goes the party!  Seriously, we can appreciate how a luncheon at this time of year does not accommodate our Muslim employees' beliefs.  Perhaps the Grill House can hold off on serving your meal until the end of the party or else package everything for you to take it home in little foil doggy baggy.  Will that work?
Meanwhile, I've arranged for members of Weight Watchers to sit farthest from the dessert buffet, and pregnant women will get the table closest to the restrooms.
Gays are allowed to sit with each other.  Lesbians do not have to sit with Gay men, each group will have their own table.
Yes, there will be flower arrangement for the Gay men's table.
To the person asking permission to cross dress, the Grill House asks that no cross-dressing be allowed, apparently because of concerns about confusion in the restrooms.  Sorry.
We will have booster seats for short people.
Low-fat food will be available for those on a diet.
I am sorry to report that we cannot control the amount of salt used in the food .  The Grill House suggests that people with high blood pressure taste a bite first.
There will be fresh "low sugar" fruits as dessert for diabetics, but the restaurant cannot supply "no sugar" desserts. Sorry!

Did I miss anything?!?!?

RE:         The F****** Holiday Party
 
I've had it with you vegetarian pricks!!!  We're going to keep this party at the Grill House whether you like it or not, so you can sit quietly at the table furthest from the "grill of death," as you so quaintly put it, and you'll get your ****** salad bar, including organic tomatoes.  But you know, tomatoes have feelings, too.  They scream when you slice them.  I've heard them scream.  I'm hearing them scream right NOW!
The rest of you ****** wierdos can kiss my ass.  I hope you all have a rotten holiday!
Drive drunk and die,
The b!?$h from Hell!!!

RE:        Patty Lewis and Holiday Party
 
I'm sure I speak for all of us in wishing Patty Lewis a speedy recovery and I'll continue to forward your cards to her.
In the meantime, management has decided to cancel our Holiday Party and give everyone the afternoon of the 23rd off with full pay.
Happy Holidays!
Joan
 
Enjoy!!  Chelcass   ;D ;D ;D

I made this dreamcatcher for my sister in law, she loves giraffes.  The pattern is Grampa/Pauls (thank you so much), The idea to frame it is Sully's (freeforall) thank you Sully.  I bought the wood tone frame at a yard sale years ago and I opped for the white background to make the DC stand out.  What do you think???

Thanks, Chelcass

Forgetter Be Forgotten
My forgetter's getting better,
But my rememberer is broke
To you that may seem funny
But, to me, that is no joke
or when I'm 'here' I'm wondering
If I really should be 'there'
And, when I try to think it through,
I haven't got a prayer!

Oft times I walk into a room,
Say 'what am I here for?'
I wrack my brain, but all in vain!
A zero is my score.

At times I put something away
Where it is safe, but, Gee!
The person it is safest from
Is, generally, me!

When shopping I may see someone,
Say 'Hi' and have a chat,
Then, when the person walks away
I ask myself, 'who the heck was that?
Yes, my forgetter's getting better
While my rememberer is broke,
And it's driving me plumb crazy
And that isn't any joke.

CAN YOU  RELATE???
 
Please send this to everyone you know
because
I D ON'T REMEMBER
WHO I SENT T HIS TO!

Didn't think we would get these done with hubby working 70 hours a week.  He finally got a weekend off and finished cutting these.  They are for his two daughters,  I think he did a super job.  Thinking about doing the middle in a dark stain, perhaps walnut.

I made these ornaments for the girls in my Crafty Gardener group.  The object is to take scraps of this and that and make something decorative out of it. 

The Angel (grace) is going to my Secret Santa on one of my stained glass groups.

Sorry the pictures are not the best.  Glass is so hard to photograph without glare.

Poor hubby is working 14 hours a day/ 7 days a week.  He has two plaques to finish for his daughters.  Sigh!  I generally do all the outside cuts, sand and paint or stain and he does the inside cuts.  He is better at setting the tension on the blades, mine seem to either be too loose and fall off or are so tight they bend....................practice , practice, practice!
