The Wall-Mart Greeter

[Mr__Bill]

Charley, a new retiree-greeter at Wall-Mart, just couldn't seem to get to work on time. Every day he was 5, 10, 15 minutes late.
But he was a good worker, really tidy, clean-shaven, sharp minded and a real credit to the company and obviously demonstrating their "Older Person Friendly" policies.

One day the boss called him into the office for a talk.

"Charlie, I have to tell you, I like your work ethic, you do a bang up job, but your being late so often is quite bothersome."

"Yes, I know boss, and I am working on it."

''Well good, you are a team player. That's what I like to hear. It's odd though your coming in late.
I know you're retired from the Armed Forces. What did they say if you came in late there?"

I think it's unfair to compare a flag officer to a wal-mart greeter. Pretty disrespectul.

Welcome back! 11 minutes prior to posting this you posted in another thread that you would never post on this board again.

I don't think that the intent was to be disrespectful of a military officer. Many people retire from their careers and go to work (comparatively) basic jobs as a way to earn extra money, have health benefits, or just to have a productive way to spend their time.

Ah, this was not a comparison.

Bill,

I changed you joke a little and sent it to an old Army buddy. He was an E4 when we met in the 101st. He stayed in and retired as a full bird colonel. Bet you can't guess what I changed admiral to.
