That's No Business


A Jewish kid informs his father that he's decided to join
the army rather than go into business.

His father, distraught, inquires, "What kind of job could you
have in the army?"

The young man replies, "Well, I start out as a private, but
I could become corporal or sergeant."

"Corporal...sergeant...." the father says, "that's no business."

"I could become a lieutenant or maybe captain," the young man
responded.

"Lieutenant...captain....that's no business," father said
in disgust.

"OK dad", he replied, "how about getting promoted to major,
or colonel, or general."

"Still no business!" the father insisted. "Where could you
go after general?"

The son answered, "I could become field marshall."

The old man says, "field marshall...that's no business.
Marshall Fields, now THAT'S a business."
