One day, while walking down the street, a highly successful
Human Resources Manager was tragically hit by a bus and she died.
Her soul arrived up in heaven where she was met at the
Pearly Gates by St. Peter himself. “Welcome to the heaven,” said St. Peter. “Before
you get settled in though, it seems we have a problem. You see, strangely
enough, we've never once had a Human Resources Manager make it this far and we’re
not really sure what to do with you.”
“No problem, just let me in,” said the woman.
“Well I’d like to, but I have higher orders. What we’re
going to do is let you have a day in Hell and a day in Heaven and then you can
choose whichever one you want to spend an eternity in.”
“Actually, I think I’ve made up my mind, I prefer to stay in
Heaven,” said the woman.
“Sorry, we have rules…” And with that St. Peter put the
executive in an elevator and it went down – down – down to Hell.
The door opened and she found herself stepping out onto the
putting green of a beautiful golf course. In the distance was a country club
and standing in front of her were all her friends – fellow executives that she
had worked with and they were well dressed in evening gowns and cheering for
her.
They ran up and kissed her on both cheeks and they talked
about old times. They played an excellent round of golf and at night went to
country club where she enjoyed and excellent steak and lobster dinner. She met
the Devil who was actually a really nice guy (kind of cute) and she had a great
time telling jokes and dancing.
She was having such a good time that before she knew it, it
was time to leave. Everybody shook her hand and waved goodbye as she got on the
elevator.
The elevator went up – up – up and opened back up at the
Pearly Gates and found St. Peter waiting for her. “Now it’s time to spend a day
in Heaven,” he said. So she spent the next 24 hours lounging around on clouds
and playing the harp and singing. She had great time and before she knew it her
24 hours were up and St. Peter came and got her.
“So you’ve spent a day in Hell and you’ve spent a day in
Heaven. Now you must choose you eternity.” The woman paused for a second and
then replied, “Well, I never thought I’d say this, I mean, Heaven has been
really great and all, but I think I had a better time in Hell.
When the doors of elevator opened she found herself standing
in a desolate wasteland covered in garbage and Filth. She saw her friends were
dressed in rags and were picking up the garbage and putting it in sacks. The Devil
came up to her and put his arms around her. “I don’t understand,” stammered the
woman, “yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and a country club and
we ate lobster and we danced and had a great time. Now all there is a wasteland
of garbage and all my friends look miserable.”
The Devil looked at her and told…
“Yesterday we were recruiting you, today you’re an Employee…”
