My thanks to a mischievous reader for stirring the pot of business humour. A Revenue official and a NIB head office executive are drowning. Interesting, but you can only save one of them. What to do? Take an early lunch or read the paper? And in the same theme he recounts the story of three Irish central bankers who, taking a break from side-stepping awkward questions from politicians over their stewardship of the banking system, went out rabbit shooting. The first fired, but missed by a meter to the left. The second fired, but also missed, a meter to the right. The third didn't fire, but shouted in triumph. "We got it, we got it!" Oh yes!
