The boss of a big company
needed to call one of his employees
about an urgent problem with one
of the main computers.
He dialed the employees
home phone number
and was greeted with
a child's whispered,
"Hello?"
Feeling put out at the inconvenience
of having to talk to a youngster
the boss asked,
"Is your Daddy home?"
"Yes",
whispered the small voice.
"May I talk with him?"
the man asked.
To the surprise of the boss,
the small voice whispered,
"No."
Wanting to talk with an adult,
the boss asked,
"Is your Mommy there?"
"Yes",
came the answer.
"May I talk with her?"
Again the small voice whispered,
"no".
Knowing that it was not likely that
a young child would be left home alone,
the boss decided he would
just leave a message
with the person who should be there
watching over the child.
"Is there any one there besides you?"
the boss asked the child.
"Yes" whispered the child, "A policeman".
Wondering what a cop would be doing at
his employee's home,the boss asked
"May I speak with thepoliceman"?
"No, he's busy", whispered the child.
"Busy doing what?,
asked the boss.
"Talking to Daddy and Mommy
and the Fireman",
came the whispered answer.
Growing concerned and even worried as he
heard what sounded like a helicopter
through the ear piece on the phone
the boss asked,
"What is that noise?"
"A hello-copper",
answered the whispering voice.
"What is going on there?",
asked the boss, now alarmed.
In an awed whispering voice
the child answered,
"The search team just
landed the hello-copper"
Alarmed, concerned and more than
just a little frustrated the boss asked,
"Why are they there"?
Still whispering, the young voice replied
along with a muffled giggle:
"They're looking for me"
