Jones had Hnally mustered up
enough courage to approach his
boss for an increase, but his re-
quest had been received with stony
silence. The thought came to
Jones that he had better strength-
en his case.
"You see, sir, the reason I'm
asking for more money is because
three other companies are after
me," he explained.
The boss surveyed Jones from
head to foot for a moment, then
smiled coldly.
"Indeed," he sneered. "And
may I ask who they are?"
"Well, sir," replied Jones,
"there's the gas company after
me, and the coal company after
me, and the company we got our
furniture from."
