Default Humor Needed In The Workplace

This may or may not work in a cockpit, but worth considering in these trying times. If you imagine a cockpit as a small office cubicle shared with one other person, humor is the only way to get through the day. At least your office has windows!

From MSNBC:
A guy dies and meets St. Peter who tells him, "Look, you've lived a good life, we do things a little differently than what you'd expect. I'm going to let you choose where you'd like to spend eternity. Hear me out, spend a day or two in heaven and in hell and then decide for yourself." The guy chooses heaven first and finds it beautiful and pleasant, the choirs of heaven singing, animals getting along, streets paved with gold. Nice.

"OK," St. Peter says. "Now spend a few days in hell." There the guy enjoys endless beach volleyball games, parties that last forever, many of his friends are there (naturally), beautiful people everywhere all laughing at his jokes, front row NBA finals tix, you name it. He rushes back to St. Peter and says, "I can't believe I'm saying this but I choose to live the eternities in hell."

He's dispatched back to Hades where he finds brimstone and burning lakes, miserable people chained to each other, and endless whippings from Satan. "Heyyy, what gives?" he yells at Lucifer, "Last week I was here and it was all fun and games and pretty women and partying!"

"Last week you were a recruit," Satan responds. "This week you're an employee!"

Pranks on the FA's is always a good bonding activity. I completely agree though, after small talk, what do you have!?!? It does make the difference

You should talk, vagabond. You degenerate lawyers are the ones who scare everyone into not being able to speak freely for fear of being sued out the butt.

I got a real good joke but it would get me thrown of APC (see what I mean!!)
