Rob and Randy are riding in a crowded elevator at the end of a busy day. Rob turns to Randy and asks; "How's business?"

"Last year we sold 500,000 houses, 700,000 farms and 750,000 schools," comes the reply. "This year we ought to do equally well and, in addition, sell 1,200,000 garages."

There’s a heavy silence for a moment as the elevator descends. Then a voice in the back of the crowd speaks up indignantly. "Madam," says the voice, "I'm in real estate, and those figures are preposterous!"

Seems the realtor didn't know that Randy was boasting about her most recent year as the marketing director of a major toy company.
