The company hires a new man. He was supposed to start work on a Monday, but
instead of showing up, he calls his boss. "I'm sick," he says. Boss excuses
him.

Man shows up Tuesday morning and works throughout the week, greatly
impressing everyone with his diligence and ability.

The next Monday, he once again calls his boss. "I'm sick," he says. Boss
reluctantly excuses him, but notices that this is the second Monday in a row.

Once again, the man shows up Tuesday morning and works throughout the week,
even faster and better than the previous week.

The following Monday, he calls his boss again. "I'm sick." Boss excuses
him, but decides to call the man to task on Tuesday.

Tuesday comes and as soon as the man shows up, the boss calls him into his
office.

"What gives?" asks the boss. "I can see you're a hard worker, but you've
only been here three weeks and you've called in sick every Monday."

Man says, "Well, my sister is in a bad marriage and I go over to console her
every Monday morning before work. One thing leads to another and we end up
making love all day long."

"Your sister!?!" says the boss. "That's disgusting!"

Man says, "I told you I was sick."
