Joke: Does Tricky get the job with the Inland Revenue?
Tricky is called for an interfiew with the Inland Revenue and asks his accountant for advice.
"Wear your shabbiest clothing. Let them think you're a pauper," says the accountant.
Tricky then asks his lawyer the same question....
"Don't let them intimidate you; wear your most elegant suit and tie," says the lawyer.
Confused, Tricky goes to his priest and asks him what shoud he do.....
"Let me tell you a story," says the priest. "A woman, about to be married, asks her mother what to wear on her wedding night. "Wear a heavy, long flannel nightgown that goes right up to your neck," she tells her. But when she asked her best friend, she says, "Wear your most sexy negligee, with a V-neck right down to your navel."
"I don't get it," says Tricky. What does all this have to do with the Inland Revenue?"
"The moral of the story is this,"replies the priest. "Whatever you wear, you're still going to get scre#ed.
It's true. I've had to deal with them before and my mother gave me that exact same advise.
I dont think they found it to funny when i DID turn up in a v- neck sexy negligee.
It was so liberating though

Shabby Embassy Row Buildings in Washington Stir Controversy
howz this??give a astar if u like.........?
A man, called to an audit by the IRS, asked his accountant for advice on what to wear. 'Wear your shabbiest clothing. Let him think you are a pauper.'
Then he asked his lawyer the same question, but got the opposite advice. 'Do not let them intimidate you. Wear your most elegant suit and tie.'
Confused, the man went to his buddy, told him of the conflicting advice, and requested some resolution of the dilemma. 'Let me tell you a story,'
Replied the buddy.
'A woman, about to be married, asked her mother what to wear on her wedding night. 'Wear a heavy, long, flannel nightgown that goes right up to your neck.' But when she asked her best friend, she got conflicting advice. 'Wear your most sexy negligee, with a V neck right down to your navel.'
The man protested: 'What does all this have to do with my problem with the IRS?'
The buddy responded: "'No matter what you wear, you are going to get screwed"
I loved it.You deserve a star 'cos you made my day.
