An Employee Walks into an Office

Kinda like one of those a-guy-walks-into-a-bar stories. Only not funny.

I walk into the office and boss is talking to a client. Blah, blah, blah.

After client leaves boss says, "I told them they should smoke across the street because their smoking is bothering other people."

I say, "Sounds like a good idea."

Boss says, "If they smoke across the street they can just throw the butts into the river."

Assuming she is being sarcastic I respond, "Yeah. We can put up a sign telling them to toss them in the river."

Boss says, "We can't put that on a sign. Blah, blah, incoherent nonsense...but if they were to do it at least we wouldn't have to look at those disgusting ashtrays anymore."

Oh. Um. Apparently boss is unaware of a thing called pollution.
Boss seriously thought it would be a good thing if people threw the butts in the river because ashtrays are gross, stinky eyesores.

Loser.

Should I realize a human being who has no idea how to recycle paper, plastic, cans, cartridges, etc. could care less about littering and pollution?

Fortune: The greatest danger could be your boss's stupidity.
