TonyP Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 A man walks into a kebab shop and is surprised to see Father Christmas serving behind the counter. "Santa" he says. "What are you doing working here? Shouldn't you be at the North pole preparing for the big day?" Santa sighs. He's really let himself go. The red suit's got lard and chilli sauce and bits of lettuce all over it. His apron is a mess and he just looks fed up and like he doesn't want to be serving kebabs for a living. "Well," Santa says at last, "the business has gone belly up. With the kids of today wanting more and more electronic games, everyone buys on the internet, the toy industry took a beating. Everything is so commercialised with shops putting decorations up in August I just couldn't compete, I had to lay off some of the elves, make cut-backs in quality and we just lost our competitive edge. Plus we wound up the delivery side and subcontracted out to National Carriers. But..... it didn't help. The receivers came in and asset-stripped the business and we went into liquidation. "Hell!" the man says. "I'm really sorry, it takes out what little tradition of Christmas was left." "Yeah." says Santa Clause and manages a wan smile. "Well enough about me and my woes. What can I get you?" The man says "I'll have a large donner." "Sorry." says Santa. "We're all out of Donner. Will Blitzen do instead?"
