Job Interview

One day a man tried to get a job with a great company. He passed every test with flying colors, but during the final interview, the CEO told him that his constant blinking would bother customers.

"I can fix that with some aspirin. I'll just take some and be better in a second." So, he reaches into his pocket and pulls condom after condom out until he finds the aspirin. He takes it and his blinking goes away.

The CEO says, "We don't approve of womanizing!" The guy says "Oh, no! Have you ever tried to ask a pharmacist for aspirin while you’re winking?"

There was a really annoying camp teacher at our school.

Once, my brother and his friends left a bag of chocolates in the class room when just that teacher was in there, so as no-one else was around, the teacher swiped them for himself and swiftly devoured them.
What he didn't know was that they'd replaced teh contents of the bag with joke laxative choclates.
The teacher was of school for the rest of the week, and upon his return he was over heard tellign another teacher how he had the shits really bad and how his guts had been killing him.
