A successful businessman flew to Vegas for the weekend to gamble. He
lost the shirt off his back, and had nothing left but a quarter and
the second half of his round-trip ticket -- If he could just get to
the airport he could get himself home. So he went out to the front of
the casino where there was a cab waiting. He got in and explained his
situation to the cabby. He promised to send the driver money from
home, he offered him his credit card numbers, his drivers license
number, his address, etc. but to no avail.
The cabby said, "If you don't have fifteen dollars, get the hell out
of my cab!" So the businessman was forced to hitch-hike to the
airport and was barely in time to catch his flight.
One year later the businessman, having worked long and hard to regain
his financial success, returned to Vegas and this time he won big.
Feeling pretty good about himself, he went out to the front of the
casino to get a cab ride back to the airport. Well who should he see
out there, at the end of a long line of cabs, but his old buddy who
had refused to give him a ride when he was down on his luck. The
businessman thought for a moment about how he could make the guy pay
for his lack of charity, and he hit on a plan.
The businessman got in the first cab in the line, "How much for a
ride to the airport," he asked? "Fifteen bucks," came the reply. "And
how much for you to give me a blo* job on the way?" "What?! Get the
hell out of my cab."
The businessman got into the back of each cab in the long line and
asked the same questions, with the same result. When he got to his
old friend at the back of the line, he got in and asked "How much for
a ride to the airport?" The cabby replied "fifteen bucks." The
businessman said "ok" and off they went. Then, as they drove slowly
past the long line of cabs the businessman gave a big smile and
thumbs up sign to each driver.
