A young man gets a job.....
« on: August 26, 2018, 13:52:19 PM »
A young man gets a job at the local grocery store.
His job is to bag the customers' groceries at checkout. It's mindless work, but he does not complain and performs his job well.

After working in the store for a couple of months, the store's produce section gets a juicing machine. Customers bring their selections of fruits and vegetables to the machine and an attendant juices the produce for them, making the freshest of juices.

The young man, wanting to move beyond bagging groceries, asks the manager if he can have the job of juice machine attendant. The manager denies his request.

The young man is upset, but figures that he will continue to prove his worth bagging groceries and eventually he will get the juicing job. Another few months pass and the young man approaches his manager again.

"Ma'am, I would like to request the job of juice machine attendant." Sadly, the manager denies his request once again.

"I don't understand," the young man says. "I'm professional, I'm reliable, and I'm great with the customers. I work hard and I deserve that position. I'm tired of bagging groceries."

The manager sighs and says, "you're a wonderful worker, that's true, but I simply cannot give you the job. You know what they say... baggers can't be juicers."
