One day, while walking down the street, a highly successful HR
manager was tragically hit by a bus. Her soul arrived in heaven where she was met at the pearly gates by St Peter himself. "Welcome to heaven" he said,
before you get settled we have a problem to resolve. You see we have never had a human resource manager make it this far before and we're not too sure what to do with you"
"No problem said the woman, just let me in".
" I'd like to but I have higher orders. What we're going to do is let you have a day in Hell and a day in Heaven and let you choose where you would like to spend your eternity."
"Actually I think that I have already made up my mind, I want to stay in heaven", said the woman.
"Sorry, I have my orders", and with that St Peter put the executive in an elevator and it went down, down, down into Hell.
The doors of hell opened and the woman found herself stepping out onto the putting green of a beautiful golf course. In the distance was a country club and standing in front of her were all her friends, fellow executives that she had worked with, and they were all dressed in evening gowns
and cheering for her. They ran up to her and embraced her and they talked about the old times.
They then had a round of golf and at night went to the country club where they enjoyed a steak and lobster dinner. She met the devil, who was actually rather nice, and she had a great time telling jokes and dancing.
She was having such a good time that before she knew it, it was time to leave.
Everyone shook her hand and waved goodbye as she stepped into the elevator.
The elevator went up, up, up and stopped, opening at the pearly gates where she found St Peter waiting for her.
"Now it's time to spend a day in Heaven" he said.
So she spent the next 24 hours lounging around on clouds and playing the harp and singing, and before she knew it, her 24 hours were up and St Peter came to collect her.
"So, you've spent a day in heaven and a day in hell and now you must choose your eternity" he said.
The woman paused for a while and then said, "I never thought that I would say this, I mean Heaven has been really great and all, but I think I had a better time in Hell".
St Peter then escorted her to the elevator where she went down, down, down, back to Hell. When the doors opened she found herself standing in a desolate wasteland covered in garbage and filth. She saw her friends were dressed in rags and were picking up the garbage and putting it in sacks.
The devil came up to her and put his arm around her. "I don't
understand" she stammered. "Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and a country club, and we ate lobster and steak, and danced and had a really good time, now there is only a wasteland and all my friends are dressed in rags and look thoroughly miserable"
The devil looked at her sadly and smiled. "My dear, yesterday we were recruiting you, today you are staff"
