The Marine 3 star general in charge of the joint office called his entire
staff in for an introduction meeting. When they were all inside, the general
had his aide close the door and said, “If you're going to work in this
office, you need to have COMMITMENT, each and every one of you.
Nothing is more important!” He then said to his aide, “Let him go.” The
aide opened the door to a side office, and in ran a 7 foot alligator,
snarling and snapping. The general looked straight at his new people and
said, “You're each going to have to demonstrate COMMITMENT!” He then
undid his belt and dropped his trousers around his knees. Immediately the
alligator ran up and sunk his teeth right into the general's family jewels
and held tight. The general winced, but instantly composed himself and
shouted, “this is COMMITMENT!” He waited several seconds more, then took two
fingers and jabbed the alligator in both eyes. The gator flipped over on his
back, jumped up, and ran into the corner of the office, glaring angrily at
the general. “That, my friends, is COMMITMENT. Which one of you is ready to
demonstrate this COMMITMENT?” There was much shuffling of feet and
murmuring.
Finally a female Air Force fighter pilot stepped forward and said, “I will
sir, if you promise not to poke me in the eyes”
