So, I saw this bumper sticker on the rear end of a Neon while I was walking around campus today, it read:
"My boss is a Jewish carpenter."
Now, I know the connotation of the message, the reference to Christianity, yadda, yadda yadda. I just wonder, how funny would it be if your actual boss was a Jewish carpenter?
If I were a Jewish carpenter, I would make t-shirts with that slogan for all my employees to wear. And I'd do it all for the one shining moment that a customer walks up to one of the employees and says something like "I'm so glad you believe in Jesus."
And the befuddled employee would give a quizzical look to the customer, "What?"
"Your shirt, I mean, by 'Jewish carpenter,' you mean Jesus, right?"
"Nah, that's just Murray. He's got the office in back."
Because if I were a Jewish carpenter, my name would be Murray.
