REAPING WHAT YOU SOWN.

There was this pretty looking young lady who worked as a private secretary typist to an oil company's director. She was married and lived with her husband.
One Saturday afternoon, she was at table with her husband eating when the husband's phone ran. He picked it and answered the caller. It was his wife's boss. The following ensued between them.

 BOSS: Good afternoon, sir, I am your wife's boss. I want her to come down to the office immediately, please.

HUSBAND: But sir, we are at table eating.

BOSS: Tell her to stand up and leave the food down to the office immediately. There is an urgent work for her to do.

HUSBAND: Alright sir. And he permitted her to go.

She returned late in the evening and the following ensued between them.

HUSBAND: How did it go?

WIFE: As l have already expected. He took me to the chalet for a nice time.

HUSBAND: Noted.

On Sunday in the afternoon, he called again, then, the woman was doing laundry for her husband. And the husband told him that she was washing his clothes. But he told him to tell her to get up from washing the clothes and come down to the office to do some special assignments. He allowed her to go. She returned very late in the evening and the husband asked her how did it go and the following ensued between them.

WIFE: As usual. He took me to the chalet for a nice time.

HUSBAND: Noted.

The next day in the morning, the husband appeared in the boss office with a well sharpened dagger hidden under his shirt and the following ensued between them.

HUSBAND: Sir, l want you to stand up from that your seat for me so that l will occupy it for two days.

BOSS: Me? 

HUSBAND: No, me.

BOSS: You must either be joking or out of your mind.

HUSBAND: Just take a proper look at this instrument under my shirt. I hope you can see it properly. It is a well sharpened sparkling dagger. Two days ago, my wife stood up from her food and came to you, l didn't complain or challenged you. You did the same on Sunday, l didn't challenge you. So to avoid this dagger as a visitor, just stand up so that l can occupy it for two days without complaining.

BOSS: We can settle this in another lesser way and not by violent.

HUSBAND: Am l still seeing you on the seat? It is either you stand up now, or you receive the dagger on your stomach or the police will hear about it and you will lose your job. Choose one of the options.

BOSS: I will stand up for you.

HUSBAND: Good, that's a nice talk. Now, how will l be getting all the goodies associated with the office. I mean the dividends?

BOSS: No goodies associated with it or dividends.

HUSBAND: Look at the dagger very well. Any more negative word from you, equal to stomach puncture.

BOSS: Alright, daily, l get five thousand naira. And l will advise you to be taking two thousand naira and leave three thousand naira for me. A lady will come to take your account number. Just write two thousand naira.

HUSBAND: I hope you can see the sparkling dagger. It will puncture your stomach now, if any more negative word from you. Tell me the truth.

BOSS: Alright, l was posted here three months ago and l am going to work here for a year. My monthly salary is a million naira. And l have collected three million naira already for the last three months. That means l have nine million naira remaining for the full year. Daily they come to ask whether l will like to collect in advance the full year salary. If they come just collect two hundred thousand naira each day.

HUSBAND: Do you think l am a fool? I am collecting the remain nine million naira at once today or tomorrow.If you say any more negative word, the dagger will puncture your stomach.

BOSS: Alright, but how can you collect all the salaries that l am yet to work for? The punishment is too great for me.

HUSBAND: That is your lookout. Nine million naira can't be compared to my wife. Any more negative word from you equals to puncture stomach.
