Take time to laugh...How (we) Greeks do Business...

Con talks to his son George.CON (father): "I want you to marry a girl of my choice."GEORGE (son): "I will choose my own bride!!"CON (father): "But the girl is Bill Gates' daughter.."GEORGE (son): "Well, in that case... okay."Next CON approaches Bill Gates.CON (father): "I have a husband for your daughter.... "Bill Gates: "But my daughter is too young to marry!!"CON (father): "But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank."Bill Gates: "Ah! in that case... okay."Finally CON goes to see the president of the World Bank.CON: "I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president."President: "But I already have more vice-presidents than I need!"CON: "But this young man is Bill Gates' son-in-law."President: 'Ah, in that case... okay."And that, my friends, is how (we) Greeks do business!!!Thanks Eleanna!
