Comprehending Accountants - Omar Salah Ahmed - 12-22-2003
Comprehending Accountants - Take One
An architect, an artist and an accountant were discussing whether it was
better to spend time with the wife or a mistress.
The architect said he enjoyed time with his wife, building a solid
foundation for an enduring relationship.
The artist said he enjoyed time with his mistress, because of the passion
and mystery he found there.
The accountant said, "I like both."
"Both?"
The accountant replied "Yeah. If you have a wife and a mistress, they will
each assume you are spending time with the other woman, and you can go to
the office and get some work done."
