At
a Christmas party in Melbourne last
year the staff decided
to pull a joke on their boss who had a habit of playing
serious practical jokes on everyone else.
When he went to the toilet, they went through
his wallet
and found his Tats Lotto ticket.
Then, they wrote down his numbers and
called over the waitress to set up a little prank. She came back
half an hour later and asked if anyone wanted to know
the night's Lotto numbers, then proceeded to read them
out loud before setting the numbers on the table.
The
boss looked at the numbers, then casually pulled out his wallet
and compared them. He became really silent, put his wallet back
in his jacket and sat down again
breathing really rapidly, and looking totally blown away.
After
a couple of minutes he pulled out his wallet and Lotto ticket
again,
and checked the numbers, very carefully. Then, he sculled his
drink,
stood up on his chair and shouted out to the whole room,
"I just want to let you all know something. I've been having
an affair with my secretary for months. I don't like any of you,
and I have hated working
for this company. You can all go to H*ll,
'cos I've just won a sh*t-load
of money,
and I'm leaving!"
