Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for December 23, 2021

I went there and they gave me he shaft…

250 days without a complaint! Another new record!

Oh, gravity works (Robin Williams in Ferngully)

Shafted.

How much does the receptionist have to pay the the company to let her have that job?

Another business that specializes in shafting people.

Going down.

Otis Elevator jokes:

The Otis company’s headquarters is in a one-story building. (Actually, a three-story building in Virginia.)

Failed company slogan: “Otis – Won’t hold you up; Won’t let you down.”

The more times you push the elevator’s call button, the sooner it arrives.

Well, you wouldn’t want to make a buy without testing the product, would you?

Non-destructive test please. They’re easier to clean up after.

The female of the gender most frequent request at Christmas an ejector for annoying personas whose sex tain’t but most often is of the befuddled male of the family. Trying to hide for fear he’ll be thrown out with all the Christmas’ torn wrappings and useless presents and hauled off to the trashiest dump that there ever was and never be missed excepting when time for the cutting of the roast beast. And more than likely the poor sod is the one taking a massive hit to his wallet for all the outrageous largesse. For he’s a jolly good fellow throughout all, so: hip, hip hurray for dear old Dad.

The chute deposits clients into a swimming pool. But no towels are provided.

At the end of an old Warner Bros. cartoon:

Elevator

Good to the last drop

Insert Goofy’s yell.

I was in the elevator business for a while. It had its ups and downs.

Well at least there is one happy desk warrior at the company.

“Well, the One-Way model works well enough, but not too many buyers are interested in it.”

Now, THAT’S job satisfaction. I bet she never takes a vacation.

It looks like they just acquired ‘’Apex Trash Chutes’’.

A most efficient way, of disposing of salesmen.

I would like one of those in the Executive Suite

Is it wrong I want one of those? Preferably at my front door.

Notice that the company makes elevator shafts, not elevators.

Happy Holidays, everyone!

This was laugh-out-loud funny!

In Roman times, lions awaited at the bottom

I went there for a job but all I got was a cross head.

OMG!! After working in retail and at a customer service desk for many years, how I covet that button. Game changer!

That smile of satisfaction is priceless

Even before the pandemic, this business had its ups and downs.

Elevators and shafts are sold separately??

Trapdoors and deadfalls, the key to customer service.

Ah, this guy was a drop out.

I worked at a whore house for a while and vowed “never again.” It was “in and out” and “up and down” all day long. You never realize how rough of a job being the elevator operator can be.

It’s much more difficult to get to the Upper Floors.
