A bit of this and a bit of that

A very successful real estate broker had a meeting with his new son-in-law. “I love my daughter, and now I welcome you into the family,” said the man. “To show you how much we care for you, I’m making you a 50-50 partner in my commercial real estate office. All you have to do is go to the office every day and learn the business.”

The son-in-law interrupted, “I can’t stand agents and hate selling things.”

“I see,” replied the father-in-law. “Well, then you can work in the office and take charge of some the paperwork.”

“I hate paperwork,” said the son-in-law. “I can’t stand being stuck behind a desk all day.”

“Wait a minute,” said the father-in-law. “I just made you half-owner of my real estate office, but you don’t like selling and hate working in an office. What am I going to do with you?”

“Easy,” said the young man. “I want to go back to my old PC support job. Just buy me out.”
