    Lesson 1
    A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.
    The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands
    Bob, the next-door neighbour. Before she says a word, Bob says, "I'll give you £800 to drop that
    towel." After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob.
    After a few seconds, Bob hands her £800 and leaves. The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes
    back upstairs. When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, "Who was that?" "It was Bob the next
    door neighbour," she replies. "Great!" the husband says, "did he say anything about the £800 he owes
    me?"
    Moral of the story:
    If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you
    may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.

    Lesson 2
    A priest offered a Nun a lift. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.
    The priest nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her
    leg. The nun said, "Father, remember Psalm 129?" The priest removed his hand. But, hanging gears,
    he let his hand slide up her leg again. The nun once again said, "Father, remember Psalm 129?" The
    priest apologised "Sorry sister but the flesh is weak." Arriving at the convent, the nun went on her
    way. On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, "Go forth and
    seek, further up, you will find glory."
    Moral of the story:
    If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.

    Lesson 3
    A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique
    oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out. The Genie says, "I'll give each of you just one wish.
    " Me first! Me first!" says the admin clerk. "I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat,
    without a care in the world." Puff! She's gone. Me next! Me next!" says the sales rep. "I want to
    be in Hawaii, relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and
    the love of my life." Puff! He's gone. "OK, you're up," the Genie says to the manager. The manager
    says, "I want those two back in the office after lunch."
    Moral of the story:
    Always let your boss have the first say

                      A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique
                      oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out. The Genie says, "I'll give each of you just one wish.
                      " Me first! Me first!" says the admin clerk. "I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat,
                      without a care in the world." Puff! She's gone. Me next! Me next!" says the sales rep. "I want to
                      be in Hawaii, relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and
                      the love of my life." Puff! He's gone. "OK, you're up," the Genie says to the manager. The manager
                      says, "I want those two back in the office after lunch."
                      Moral of the story:
                      Always let your boss have the first say

                      Lesson 4
                      An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing not
