One day a man goes to a pet
shop to buy a parrot.
The assistant
takes the man to the parrot section and asks the man to choose
one.
The man asks,"
How much is the yellow one?"
The assistant says,"$2000".
The man is shocked
and asks the assistant why its so expensive.
The assistant
explains, "This parrot is a very special one. He knows
typewriting and can type really fast."
"What about the green one?" the man asks.
The assistant says, "He costs $5000 because he knows typewriting
and can answer incoming telephone calls and takes notes."
"What about the red one?" the man asks.
The assistant says, "That one is $10000."
The man says, "What does he do?"
The assistant says, "I don't know, but the other two call
him boss."
