Male Employees
In a small town in the US, there is a rather sizable factory that hires only married men. Concerned about this, a local woman called on the manager and asked him, „Why is it you limit your employees to married men? Is it because you think women are weak, dumb, cantankerous… or what?”
„Not at all, Ma’am,” the manager replied. „It is because our employees are used to obeying orders, are accustomed to being shoved around, know how to keep their mouths shut and don’t pout when I yell at them.”

„Prometheus” de George Gordon Byron
| Titan! to whose immortal eyes The sufferings of mortality, Seen in their sad reality, Were not as things that gods despise; What was thy pity’s recompense? A silent suffering, and intense; The rock, the vulture, and the chain, All that the proud can feel of pain, The agony they do not show, The suffocating sense of woe, Which speaks but in its loneliness, And then is jealous lest the sky Should have a listener, nor will sigh Until its voice is echoless. |
Titan! Al omenirii chin, Mereu dispreţuit de zei, În ochii-ţi, veşnice scântei, S-a oglindit întreg, hain. Ţi-a fost răsplată suferinţa Care ţi-a măcinat fiinţa, Şi lanţul, vulturul, o stâncă, Tortura crâncenă şi-adâncă Pe care-o inimă vitează, Doar solitudinii-o trădează, În mândra ei însingurare, – Dar şi atunci cu-o şoaptă mută Ca cel de sus să nu-i audă Suspinul stins în murmurare. |
