Charley, a new retiree-greeter at WalMart, just couldn't seem to get to work on time.
Every day he was 5, 10, 15 minutes late. But he was a good worker, really tidy, clean-shaven, sharp minded and a real credit to the company; obviously demonstrating their "Older Person Friendly" policies.
One day the boss called him into the office for a talk.
"Charley, I have to tell you, I like your work ethic, you are cordial, helpful and overall you do a bang up job. But, being late so often is quite bothersome."
"I know boss, and I am working on it."
''Well good, I you are a team player.
That's what I like to hear. It's odd though you're coming in late.
I know you're retired from the Armed Forces.
So, what did they say if you came in late back then?"
