A two-star (general) decided he needed to take up golf because the chatter on the course and the contacts were vital to his moving up. He meets with the course pro, tells him he wants the best equipment and private lessons.
They go to the first tee. The pro shows him the proper swing and says “see that flag? Get the ball as close to it as you can.” The general looks, sets up and swings . It’s on the green! They walk up to the green and the ball is inches from the hole. The pro is amazed. The general says “what do I do now?” The pro says “you put it into the hole”. The general glares at the pro and says “why didn’t you tell me that in the first place?”
