Please 
find 
below 
some 
jokes 
quoted 
from 
a 
book: 

Plato 
and 
a Platypus, 
walk 
into 
a 
bar.  

By 
Thomas Catchcart 
& 
Daniel 
Klein.



The 
comments 
in 
the 
message 
are 
made 
especially 
for
consultants 
in 
any 
field 
and 
in 
any 
place.  
Clients 
can 
enjoy 
the 
jokes 
also.

 


1. 
Ted 
meets 
his 
friend 
Al 
and 
exclaims,
 “Al! 
I 
heard 
you died!”
“Hardly” 
says 
Al, 
laughing, 

“As 
you 
can 
see 
I’m 
very 
much alive.”
“Impossible,” 
says 
Ted. 

The 
man 
who 
told 
me 
is 
much 
more reliable 
than 
you.”

Message: 

It 
does not 
matter 
what 
the 
fact 
is. 
Credibility is 
number 
one.  
Therefore, 
it 
is 
very
important 
you 
gain 
credibility 
in 
whatever 
field 
you 
are 
consulting. 

Once 
you get 
it 
you 
can 
even 
insult 
the 
hard 
real 
data.


2.  
 
A 
man 
walks 
into a 
pet 
store 
and 
asks 
to 
see 
the 
parrots.
The 
store 
owner 
shows 
him 
two 
beautiful 
ones 
out 
on 
the floor. 
“This 
one 
is 
$5,000 and 
the 
other 
is 
$10,000,” 
he 
says.  
  
“Wow!” 
says 
the 
man. 
“What 
does 
the 
$5,000 
one 
do?”
“This 
parrot 
can 
sing 
every 
aria 
Mozart 
wrote,” 
says 
the
store 
owner.
“And 
the 
other?”
“He 
sings 
Wagner’s 
entire 
Ring 
cycle.  

There’s 
another 
parrot 
out 
back 
for 
$30,000.”
“Holey 
moley! 
What 
does 
he 
do?”

“Nothing 
that 
I’ve 
heard, 
but 
the 
other 
two 
call 
him “Maestro”.

Message: 

Network is 
important. 
Especially 
if 
you 
can 
have 
references 
from 
the 
“known”  
or 
/ 
proven” 
experts.  

Rumour 
tends 
to 
work 
the 
other 
way 
around though.


3. 
Salesman: 
“Ma’am 
this 
vacuum 
cleaner 
will 
cut 
your 
work in 
half.”
  
  
Customer: “Terrific! 
Give 
me 
two 
of 
them.”

Message: 

Be careful 
with 
client 
who 
thinks 
that 
the 
more 
consultants 
in 
a 
project 
the
faster 
it 
will 
be 
finished, 
because 
the 
other 
way 
around 
is 
the 
truth.  


4. 
A 
man 
is 
worried 
that 
his 
wife 
is 
losing 
her 
hearing, 
so he 
consults 
a 
doctor.  

The 
doctor suggests 
that 
he 
tried 
a 
simple 
at-home 
test 
on 
her: 

Stand 
behind 
her 
and 
ask her 
a 
question, 
first 
from 
twenty 
feet 
away, 

next 
from 
ten 
feet,  
and 
finally 
right 
behind 
her.

So 
the 
man 
goes 
home 
and 
sees 
his 
wife 
in 
the 
kitchen 
facing the 
stove.  
He 
says 
from 
the 
door, 
“What’s 
for 
dinner 
tonight”
No 
answer.
Ten 
feet 
behind 
her 
he 
repeats, 
“What’s 
for 
dinner 
tonight?”
Still 
no 
answer.
Finally, 
right 
behind 
her 
he 
says, 
“What’s 
for 
dinner tonight?”
And 
his 
wife 
turn 
around 
and 
says: 
“For 
the 
third 
time 
–Chicken”

Message: 

If 
your client 
is 
completely 
lost 
with 
your 
explanation 
or 
your 
work;  

sit 
back 
and 
check 
your 
work 
again. 

It 
might be 
you 
who 
are 
completely 
screw 
up.


5. 
Joe:  
What 
a fabulous 
singer, 
huh?
  
  
Blow: 
Ha, 
if 
I 
had his 
voice, 
I’d 
be 
just 
as 
good.

Message: 

Admit it!  
Some 
consultants 
is 
better 
than
other 
in 
one 
type 
of 
work/specialties.


 6. 
There’s 
a 
surefire 
way 
to 
live 
to 
a 
ripe 
old 
age 
– 
eat 
a
meatball 
a 
day 
for 
a 
hundred 
years  
  
(page 
68) 
.


Message: 

This 
one is 
for 
clients.  
Make 
sure 
you 
understand
the 
conclusions 
/ 
recommendations 
of 
your 
consultant.
He 
might 
not 
have 
done 
anything 
and 
just 
play
with 
words 
to 
convince 
you.


7. 
A 
young 
married 
couple 
moves 
into 
a 
new 
apartment 
and
decides 
to 
repaper 
the 
dining 
room.  
They call 
on 
a 
neighbor 

who 
has 
a 
dining 
room 
the 
same 
size 
and 
ask, 
“How 
many 
rolls
of 
wallpaper 
did 
you 
buy 
when 
you 
papered 
your 
dining 
room?”
“Seven”, 
he 
says.

So 
the 
couple 
buys 
seven 
rolls 
of 
expensive 
paper, 
and 
they
start 
papering. 

When 
they 
get 
to 
the 
end 
of 
the 
fourth 
rol, 
the 
dining 
room 
is
finished.  

Annoyed, 
he 
go 
back 
to 
the neighbor, 
and 
say,
 “ 
We 
followed 
your 
advice, 
but 
we 
ended 
up 
with 
three 
extra rolls.”

“So”, 
he 
says, 
“that 
happened 
to 
you 
too”

Message: 

make 
sure you 
ask 
the 
right 
question



8. 
A 
911 
dispatcher 
receives 
a 
panicky 
call 
from 
hunter.
“I’ve 
just 
come 
across 
a 
bloodstained 
body 
in 
the 
woods! 
It’s 
a 
man, 
and 
I
think  
he’s 
dead! 
What 
should 
I 
do?”

The 
dispatcher 
calmly 
replies, 
“It’s 
going 
to 
be 
alright sir.
Just 
follow 
my 
instructions. 

The 
first 
thing 
is 
to 
put 
the 
phone 
down 
and make 
sure 
he’s 
dead.”

There 
is 
a 
silence 
on 
the 
phone, 
followed 
by 
the 
sound 
of 
a shot. 

The 
man’s 
voice 
returns, 
“Okay. 
Now 
what 
do 
I 
do?”


Message: 

be careful 
with 
your 
instructions. 
This 
is 
true 
for 
both 
the 
clients 
and
consultants.
