One
day while walking down the street a highly successful Human Resources
Manager was tragically hit by a bus and she died. Her soul arrived up in
heaven where she was met at the Heaven by God himself.
“Welcome to Heaven,” said God.
“Before you get settled in though, it seems we have a problem. You see,
strangely enough, we’ve never once had a Human Resources Manager make
it this far and we’re not really sure what to do with you.”
“No problem, just let me in,” said the woman.
“Well,I’d
like to, but I have higher orders. What we’re going to do is let you
have a day in Hell and a day in Heaven and then you can choose whichever
one you want to spend an eternity in.”
“Actually, I think I’ve made up my mind, I prefer to stay in Heaven”, said the woman
“Sorry, we have rules….”
And with that God put the executive in an elevator and it went down-down-down to hell.
The
doors opened and she found herself stepping out onto the putting green
of a beautiful golf course. In the distance was a country club and
standing in front of her were all her friends – fellow executives that
she had worked with and they were well dressed in evening gowns and
cheering
for her. They ran up and kissed her on both cheeks and they talked
about old times. They played an excellent round of golf and at night
went to the country club where she enjoyed an excellent steak and
lobster dinner.
She met the Devil who was actually a really nice guy (kind of
cute) and she had a great time telling jokes and dancing. She was
having such a good time that before she knew it, it was time to
leave.Everybody shook her hand and waved goodbye as she got on the
elevator.
The elevator went up-up-up and opened back up at the Heaven and found God waiting for her..
“Now
it’s time to spend a day in heaven,” he said. So she spent the next 24
hours lounging around on clouds and playing the harp and singing. She
had great time and before she knew it her 24 hours were up and God came and got her.
“So, you’ve spent a day in hell and you’ve spent a day in heaven. Now you must choose your eternity,”
The
woman paused for a second and then replied, “Well, I never thought I’d
say this, I mean, Heaven has been really great and all, but I think I
had a better time in Hell.”
So God escorted her to the elevator and again she went down-down-down back to Hell.
When
the doors of the elevator opened she found herself standing in a
desolate wasteland covered in garbage and filth. She saw her friends
were dressed in rags and were picking up the garbage and putting it in
sacks.
The Devil came up to her and put his arm around her.
“I
don’t understand,” stammered the woman, “yesterday I was here and there
was a golf course and a country club and we ate lobster and we danced
and had a great time. Now all there is a wasteland of garbage and all my
friends look miserable.”
The Devil looked at her smiled and told…
“Yesterday we were recruiting you, today you’re an Employee”
