Senior Humor
A Long Day
Jim, Scott, and Alex are tired after traveling all day and check into a hotel.
When they get to the hotel reception desk, they find out they'll have to walk up 75 flights of stairs to get to their room because the elevator is out of order.
Jim suggests that they do something interesting to pass time while they walk up the 75 flights.
They decided that Jim will tell jokes, Scott will sing songs, and Alex will tell sad stories.
So Jim tells jokes for 25 flights, Scott sings songs for 25 flights, and Alex tells sad stories for 24 flights.
When they reach the 75th floor, Alex tells his saddest story of all. "Guys, I left our room key at the reception desk."

Angels Who Soar: Celebrating Our Hardworking Employees
We are so proud of our wonderful, hard-working employees who go beyond the call of duty. Below is why our Angels are so special...
Edith C. has been a versatile go-to Angel. Not only is she willing to accept assignments in both Mercer and in Burlington counties, but in the past few weeks, she has accepted every fill-in assignment we have offered--without complaint. Edith is pleasant and always seems to have a positive attitude. She has a genuine empathy for our clients, and really cares about keeping them happy. Edith is a wonderful member of the Angels team.
Arnell Y. is one of those special Angels who is always willing to accept fill-in assignments. She makes a concerted effort to check in with the office every day. She is reliable, trustworthy, and cares a great deal about the clients she cares for. Always with a ready smile, she pitches in and does whatever is necessary to ensure our clients are well taken care of!
We are grateful for you and thank you for your hard work, Edith and Arnell!
