Walmart Greeter--a classic

 

Not a clue if it is true or not but I like the story.

 

 

Charley, a new retiree-greeter at Wal-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. "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, Admiral, can I get you coffee, sir?"
