The company whose shareholders were better than its management
Four friends who hadn't seen each other in over 30 years, reunited at a party. After several libations one of the men left to use the washroom.
The remaining three talked about their kids.
The first guy said." My son is my pride and joy. He completed university with a degree in economics then finished with an MBA. By working hard he finally reached the top of his company's corporate ladder. In fact he just bought his best friend a top of the line Mercedes for his birthday."
The second guy said. "that's terriffic, my son is also very successful. He completed a degree in Business Administration, then went to flight school. He is now head of one of the largest airlines in the world. In fact he is so rich that he bought his best friend his own jet for his birthday."
The third man said. "That is fantastic, my son studied engineering and is now the head of a major building conglomerate and is currently one of the richest men in the country. In fact, he just bought his best friend a 30,000 square foot mansion for his birthday.
The fourth man got back from the washroom. The three turned to him and said they had been talking about their sons and how successful they were. They then asked him how his son was doing.
The fourth man replied. "My son is gay, and makes a living dancing as a stripper at a gay nightclub." The three said, "what a shame, what a disappointment he must be."
To which the fourth man replied. "No, I'm not ashamed. He's my son and I love him. And he hasn't done too bad either, for his birthday, two weeks ago, he received a 30,000 sq. ft. Mansion, a brand new Jet, and a top of the line Mercedes from his three boyfriends.
