Winner of Eli’s Cartoon Caption Contest No. 215
“My boy, our generous benefits package includes free housing and meals for the first 18 years.”
(by Joe Ayella)
My original caption: “Cute. Where’s his resume?”
Congratulations, Joe Ayella, on your second victory. Since you just won Contest No. 214, that makes two victories in a row. Are you trying for an Olympic Gold Medal here? Only time will tell. Anyway, you are once again one of the funniest people around and you have earned the right to shout it to the world.
Here are the other captions that were in serious contention:
“Let’s maximize your potential!” (by Kelly)
“I say he’s a keeper — let’s skip the probationary period altogether.” (also by Joe Ayella)
“You’re hired!” (by Rich Wolf)
“Where do you see yourself ten years from now?” (by Lee Lacewell)
“It won’t be long before she is telling me the courses I need and the experience required to be a better father.” (by Scott Malcolm)
“Sleeping on the job already? Not a problem.” (also by Joe Ayella)
“I’m a bit concerned that you only have nine months of verifiable previous existence!” (also by Lee Lacewell)
“He can have parking spot #6.” (by Michael Lomazow)
“Yours was a difficult and painful delivery but I think I’ll pull through.” (by Simon Healeas) No connection here to the “PERSONNEL MANAGER” banner, Simon, but the caption brought a smile to my face.
Contest No. 216 will be posted in a little more than a fortnight, Captioneers, so keep your pen, paper and computer handy. Thanks for participating!
