Today's ghastly groaner

Feeling it was time for a shakeup, a company hired a new CEO. The new boss was determined to rid the company of all slackers. On a tour of the facilities, the CEO noticed a guy leaning against the wall. The room was full of workers and he wanted them to know he meant business. He asked the guy, “How much money do you make a week?”

A little surprised, the young man looked at him and said, “I make $400 a week. Why?”

The CEO said, “Wait right here.” He went to his office, came right back, handed the guy $1,600 in cash, and said, “Here’s four weeks pay. Now get out and don’t come back.”

Feeling pretty good about himself, the CEO looked around and asked, “Does anyone want to tell me what that goof-ball did here?”

From across the room a voice said, “Pizza delivery guy.”
