If you could use a little comic relief after facing up to your financial shortcomings, you’ll appreciate the hilarious advice in JJ’s Business Bullets. For example, consider these signs that you’ve picked the wrong bank: "Backfiring ATMs ‘" "Remember, you’re just a number" telephone greeting.

"Overdraft notices delivered on a brick through your living room window. " Vanderbilt business professor Fred Talbott (a.k.a. Professor Pinhead) aims his humor at the jerks of the business world from cranky receptionists to wacky bosses. The perfect antidote to taking yourself (or your job) too seriously.
