The Impact of Job Change plus A Devout Peasant in the Dark Ages

The Impact of Job Change

One day, a passenger in a cab tapped the cab driver on his shoulder to get his attention.

The cab driver screamed, lost control of the cab, went up on sidewalk & stopped a few inches from a shop.

The passenger apologized & said: "I didn't realize that a little touch would scare you so much."

The cab driver replied "Sorry it's not your fault, it's my 1st day as a cab driver, I've been driving a hearse for the last 20 years."


A Devout Peasant in the Dark Ages...

Has a starving family, so goes to the church to pray. "Oh, please lord, oh great one, in your benevolence provide my family with sustenance".

A lump of meat falls from the heavens and lands at his feet.

The next week they are starving again, so the peasant goes back to the church, kneels and bows his head "Oh, merciful lord, I thank you for your kindness and humbly pray for more food for my starving children".

Another lump of meat falls from the sky and lands at his feet.

Inevitably the man returns the following week, bows down at the front of the church and prays again "Lord I beg of you, you have saved my family time and again and I am forever grateful. If you bestow upon me some more food I promise this will be the last time as I realise there are others who will need your help more than I".

Sure enough, a lump of meat falls from the sky.

The man praises god, looks toward the heavens and sees a leper dancing on the roof.
