The boss

            One day a man goes to a pet shop to buy a parrot. The assistant takes
            the man to the parrot section and asks the man to choose one. The
            man  asks, ''How much is the yellow one?''
            The assistant says, ''$2000.'' The man is shocked and asks the
            assistant why it's so expensive. The assistant explains, ''This parrot is a
            very special one. He knows typewriting and can type really fast.''
            ''What about the green one?'' the man asks.
            The assistant says, ''He costs $5000 because he knows typewriting
            and can answer incoming telephone calls and takes notes.''
            ''What about the red one?'' the man asks.
            The assistant says, ''That one's $10,000.''
            The man says, ''What does HE do?''
            The assistant says, ''I don't know, but the other two call him
            boss.''
