Get what you ask for!

A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on strangers, which he was.

When he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen.

He goes back into the bar, handily flips his gun into the air, catches it above his head without even looking and fires a shot into the ceiling. "WHICH ONE OF YOU SIDEWINDERS STOLE MY HOSS?" he yelled with surprising forcefulness. No one answered. "ALL RIGHT I'M GONNA HAVE ANOTHA BEER, AND IF MY HOSS AIN'T BACK OUTSIDE BY THE TIME I FINISH, I'M GONNA DO WHAT I DUN IN TEXAS! AND I DON'T LIKE TO HAVE TO DO WHAT I DUN IN TEXAS!”

Some of the locals shifted restlessly.

He had another beer, walked outside, and his horse is back!

He saddles up and starts to ride out of town. The bartender wanders out of the bar and asks, "Say partner, before you go... what did happen in Texas?

"The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk home."


A fair comparison of PRISON to WORK

IN PRISON... You spend the majority of your time in an 8x10 cell.
AT WORK... You spend most of your time in a 6x8 cubicle.

IN PRISON... You get three meals a day.
AT WORK... You only get a break for 1 meal and you have to pay for it.

IN PRISON... You get time off for good behavior.
AT WORK... You get rewarded for good behavior with more work.

IN PRISON... A guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you.
AT WORK... You must carry around a security card and unlock and open all the
doors yourself.

IN PRISON... You can watch TV and play games.
AT WORK... You get fired for watching TV and playing games.

IN PRISON... You get your own toilet.
AT WORK... You have to share.

IN PRISON... They allow your family and friends to visit.
AT WORK... You cannot even speak to your family and friends.

IN PRISON... All expenses are paid by tax payers with no work required.
AT WORK... You get to pay all the expenses to go to work and then they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners.

IN PRISON... You spend most of your life looking through bars from the inside wanting to get out.
AT WORK... You spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars.

IN PRISON... There are wardens who are often sadistic.
AT WORK... They are called supervisors.

IN PRISON... You have unlimited time to read e-mail jokes.
AT WORK... You get fired if you get caught.
