A guy I used to work with at the mines had an off-beat sense of humor that got him into considerable trouble from time to time at home.
He had a small trust fund from a relative who had passed and left family members some money to be used for education only. The bank administered it, and every time he spent money on education or books or anything affiliated with education, he would put the recipts in an envelope and give it to his wife, who would take it to the bank the next time she went and get the money refunded, ALWAYS using the same teller at the bank, because he understood what was going on. She'd hand him the envelope, he'd look inside, hand her the money, end of transaction......EXCEPT;
One day she walks into the bank, waits in line for her correct teller, hands him the envelope, he opens it and reads the paper, starts laughing like a hyena! She is embarrased, keeps trying to find out what is going on, but the teller keeps calling other employees over to read the paper in his hand, THEY start laughing like hyenas, call more people over, etc.
Finally, she starts shouting at the teller to tell her what is going on, an he hands her the paper from the envelope. In her husband's neat printing it says "hand me ten thousand pennies or I'll pee on the floor"
What a good sport she was! Some wives would have prob'ly given him a shiner while he was asleep for a stunt like that, but she took it with good grace.....Joe
