    A company hires a new man. He was supposed to startwork on a Monday, but instead of showing up, he calls his boss. "I'm sick," he says. The Boss excuses him and the man shows up Tuesday morning and works throughout the week, greatly impressing everyone with his diligence and ability. The next Monday, he once again calls his Boss. "I'm sick," he says. The Boss reluctantly excuses him, but notices that this is the second Monday in a row. Once again, the man shows up Tuesday morning and works throughout the week, even faster and better than the previous week. The following Monday, he calls his Boss again. "I'm sick." This time the Boss very reluctantly excuses him and decides to call the man to task on Tuesday. Tuesday comes and as soon as the man shows up, the Boss calls him into his office. "What gives?" asks the Boss. "I can see you're a hard worker, but you've only been here three weeks and you've called in sick every Monday." The man says: "Well, my granddad slaps my grandma around every weekend, so every Monday morning before work, I go round to console her. One thing leads to another and we end up making love all day long."
    "Your grandma!?!" says the Boss, rather taken aback, "That's disgusting!"
    The man says: "I told you I was sick."
