Funny Quotes About Jobs to Keep You Laughing In This Economy





From Denny:  Everyone has jobs on their mind.  Everyone wants a better paying job, a long term job, a job with real health benefits and a pension.  Keep dreaming.  Someone has to stay positive in this economy.

If all that day dreaming doesn't work out for you how about laughing your way through the trying times?  These cute quotes will keep you smiling and stuffed full of happy thoughts - while you roll your eyes at yet one more blowhard self-important boss in a Boring Contest corporate meeting.
