Sonny was now in Bill’s office alone; Lois had left. Bill turned to Sonny and asked, “When I put that help wanted ad in the paper a year ago, what did you do?”
Sonny didn’t hesitate in responding, “I asked for the job.”
Bill nodded. “When I was ready to fire you from that job after catching you smoking marijuana in the parking lot, what did you do?”
“I asked for the job,” Sonny replied.
“So, Sonny, after you’ve asked me for the job, say three of four times, what will you finally do?”
Sonny thought about it but had nothing to say.
“If I were the Pope, I’d fire your ass right now!” Bill shouted. “But, come in Monday, I’ll find something else for you to do.”
Sonny knew he had said the wrong thing. You only knock once.
