Turkey Trouble

At the last place I worked, we decided to have a drawing to give away a Thanksgiving turkey. My boss thought it would be funny to surprise the winner with a real LIVE turkey (instead of the traditional frozen Butterball). So off they went to the turkey farm, where they selected the finest fowl to be found, and drove it back to the company. The winner's name was announced at a company-wide meeting, and a cage was wheeled out with the live turkey in it. The recipient was mortified. Her shock and disapproval instantly spread through the crowd as everyone instantly became an animal rights activist! "You can't kill the turkey," "Save Tom Turkey," the crowd began to chant!

The turkey got scared and started fluttering frantically in the cage. Feathers were flying everywhere. And then the bird relieved itself, spreading it's farm-fresh aroma throughout our company!

The "funny" idea had turned into a total freakin' disaster! Seriously, what were they thinking!
