Late for Work
He just couldn't seem to get to work on time.
Every day he was 5, maybe 10 minutes late.
He was very conscientious, very sharp and very productive.
This was a second career for the gentleman so the Boss was
in a quandary about what to do about it.
Finally, he decided he needed to talk to him and called him into the office for a chat.
"Bill, I have to tell you, I like your work ethics, but your being late often is quite bothersome."
"Yes, I know Boss, and I`m working on it."
"Well good. That`s what I like to hear. It`s sort of odd though, your coming in late.

I know that you are retired from the Navy.
What did they say if you came in late there?"
"They said, "Good morning, Admiral."
