New Boss for Channel Nine
channel nine drivers may be looking for a new boss according to this one that turned up yesterday.
OZ expats will enjoy this one. It details the ‘meteoric’ promotion of one Eddie McGuire in the channel nine metwork.
A man on his way home from work, comes to a dead halt in traffic and
thinks to himself, "This traffic seems worse than usual. Nothing's even
moving."
He notices a police officer walking back and forth between the lines of
cars, so he rolls down his window and asks, "Constable, what's the hold up?"
The constable replies, "Its Eddie McGuire. He's just so depressed
about his personal life - the thought of moving with Carla & Joseph to
Sydney and the state of disruption amongst his beloved Magpies, Channel 9
losing the football coverage, having to give up The Footy Show, Who
wants to be a Millionaire, and his Triple M radio show, that he's
stopped his motorcade in the middle of the freeway and he's threatening
to douse himself in petrol and set himself on fire.
He says his family hates him and he doesn't have the money to pay For
the new house renovations at Point Piper and to bring his current house
in Toorak up to scratch to put it on the market.
We're taking up a collection for him."
"Oh really? How much have you got so far?"
"About three hundred litres, but a lot of people are still siphoning."
