The Reality Is Priceless."},"content":{"rendered":"
A boss wondered why one of his most valued employees had not rung in sick one day. Having an urgent problem with a main computer, he phoned the employee\u2019s home number and was greeted with a child\u2019s whisper, \u2018Hello?\u2019\n \u2018Is your Daddy home?\u2019 he asked. \u2018Yes\u2019, whispered the small voice.\n \u2018May I speak to him?\u2019 The child whispered \u2018No.\u2019\n Surprised and wanting to talk to an adult, the boss asked, \u2018Is your Mummy there?\u2019\n \u2018Yes.\u2019\n \u2018Well may I speak to her, then?\u2019 Again the small voice whispered \u2018No.\u2019\n Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, \u2018Is anybody else there?\u2019\n \u2018Yes,\u2019 whispered the child, \u2018a policeman.\u2019\n Wondering what the police would be doing at his employee\u2019s home, the boss asked, \u2018May I speak to the policeman?\u2019\n \u2018No, he\u2019s busy,\u2019 whispered the child.\n \u2018Busy doing what?\u2019\n \u2018Talking to Mummy and Daddy and the Fireman,\u2019 came the whispered reply.\n Growing more worried as he heard a loud noise in the background coming down the phone, the boss asked \u2018What\u2019s that noise?\u2019\n \u2018A helicopter\u2019, answered the whispering voice.\n \u2018What\u2019s going on there?\u2019 demanded the boss, now really apprehensive.\n Again, whispering, the child answered, \u2018The search team has just landed a helicopter.\u2019\n Alarmed, concerned, and a little frustrated, the boss asked \u2018What are they searching for?\u2019\n Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle\u2026 \u2018ME!\u2019\n Some children can have such cheeky personalities. While it is cute to see them acting funny and mischievous, they can also be a little (or a lot) naughty at times. Although this is a joke, I could actually imagine this happening. A hide and seek game gone a little too far. As parents kids really know how to test us, and as the boss I can only imagine the confusion of the situation he\u2019s found himself in.\n You\u2019ve just read, Boss Calls Employee\u2019s House And Starts Sweating After Hearing This.
