WHY PARENTS DRINK....
>>
>> The boss wondered why one of his most valued
>> employees had not phoned in sick one day.
>> Having an urgent problem with one of the main
>> computers,he dialed the employee's home phone number
>> and was greeted with a child's whisper.
>> "Hello."
>> "Is your daddy home?" he asked.
>> "Yes," whispered the small voice.
>> "May I talk with him?"
>> The child whispered, "No."
>> Surprised and wanting to talk with an adult, the
>> boss asked,
>> "Is your Mommy there?"
>> "Yes."
>> "May I talk with her?"
>> Again the small voice whispered, "No."
>> Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a
>> message, the boss asked, "Is anybody else there?"
>> "Yes," whispered the child, "a policeman."
>> Wondering what a cop would be doing at his
>> employee's home, the boss asked, "May I speak with
>> the policeman?"
>> "No, he's busy," whispered the child.
>> "Busy doing what?
>> "Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman," came
>> the whispered answer.
>> Growing more worried as he heard what sounded like a
>> helicopter through the ear piece on the phone, the
>> boss asked,
>> "What is that noise?"
>> "A helicopter" answered the whispering voice.
>> "What is going on there?" demanded the boss, now
>> truly apprehensive.
>> Again, whispering, the child answered, "The search
>> team just landed the helicopter."
>> Alarmed, concerned and a little frustrated the boss
>> asked,
>> "What are they searching for?"
>> Still whispering, the young voice replied with a
>> muffled giggle.
>>
>> "ME"
