Who’s Corrupt?

Girl : Dad, are you corrupt?

Father : No. The government is corrupt, the politicians and the police are corrupt. I’m not corrupt.

Girl : But I heard you ask the salesman to give you $100,000 to get your company to agree to the deal.

Father : That’s business. I’m a businessman.

Girl : Oh…. When is a businessman corrupt then?

Father : A businessman is corrupt if he asks the salesman for $200,000 and didn’t get his company to agree to the deal.

Girl : Isn’t that..... stealing?

Father : No, no. Stealing is when you take the $200,000 without asking.

Girl : So what’s business?

Father : Business is about making as much money as possible for yourself.

Girl : So why don’t you just print your own money?

Father : Oh, the neighbours are already doing that in their backyard. But that’s cheating. And cheating is wrong!

Wot a Tough Life

: I see you joined the police force for a bit of quick money. But you don’t exactly look like you’re living it up.

: I’m on the traffic beat.

: So? That’s perfect! There’re hundreds of traffic offenders every day and lots of ways to break the law. You even get to name your price! What’s your problem?

: Everyone’s so corrupt these days it’s disgusting. I have to pretend to issue a ticket to book an offender. But before I can even put my pen down and stick my hand out, my partner’s already pocketed the money for himself. And I wasted my life for this?

……*@#! I hate whiners **
