Charley, a new retiree greeter at Walmart, 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. "Charley, 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?"
''They said, 'Good morning, General, can I get you coffee, sir?'''
