The
Silent Treatment
A
man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other
the silent treatment. Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would
need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.
Not
wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of
paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 AM ”. He left it where he knew she would
find it.
The
next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had
missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't
wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed.
The
paper said, "It is 5:00 AM . Wake up."
Men
are not equipped for these kinds of contests.
