Subject: Morning Briefing
The Commanding Officer of a regiment in the US Marine Corps was
about to start the morning briefing to his staff, and Battalion and
Company Commanders. While waiting for the coffee machine to finish its
brewing, he decided to pose a question to all assembled.
He explained that his wife had been a bit frisky the night
before and he failed to get his usual amount of sound sleep.
He posed the question of just how much of sex was 'work' and how much of
it was
'pleasure?'
The XO (Executive Officer) chimed in with 75-25% in favor of work.
A Captain said it was 50-50%.
The Colonel's Aide, a Lieutenant, responded with 25-75% in favor
of pleasure, depending on his state of inebriation at the time.
There being no consensus, the Colonel turned to the Private
First Class who was in charge of making the coffee. What was HIS
opinion?
With no hesitation, the young PFC responded, "Sir, it has to be
100% pleasure."
The Colonel was surprised and, as you might guess, asked why?
"Well, Sir, began the PFC, "if there was any work involved, the
officers would have me doing it for them."
The room fell silent!
