A blonde goes into work one morning crying her eyes out. 
 Her boss asked sympathetically, 'What's the matter?' 
 The blonde replies, 
 'Early this morning I got a phone call saying that 
 my mother had passed away.' 
 The boss, feeling sorry for her, says, 
 'Why don't you go home for the 
 day? Take the day off to relax & rest.' 
 'Thanks, but I'd be better off here. 
 I need to keep my mind off it &
 I have the best chance of doing that here.' 
 The boss agrees & allows the blonde to work as usual. 
 A couple of hours pass & the boss decides to check on the blonde. 
 He looks out from his office & sees the blonde crying hysterically... 
 'What's so bad now? Are you gonna be okay?' he asks. 
 'No!' exclaims the blonde. 
 'I just received a horrible call from my 
 sister. Her mother died, too!'
