Bill sat on a bar stool at the local tavern, staring at the glass in front of him.
A large, loud mouthed man came into the tavern and casting insults at everyone in sight, walked over to where Bill was sitting, grabbed his drink and in one big gulp, drank it, laughing loudly as he slammed the empty glass back on the bar.
Bill broke into tears, sobbing dreadfully.
The loudmouth said, "Whoa! Take it easy buddy. I was just having some fun and I can't stand to see a grown man cry.
Tell you what. I'll buy you another drink."
Bill looked up and between sobs said, "You don't understand. I can't win for loosing."
"A week ago, I lost the love of my life.
My beautiful wife died while giving birth to my son."
"My newborn son had a heart problem and the doctors couldn't do a thing to help him. Within two days, he too passed away."
"I was so depressed, I couldn't do my job.
Yesterday, my boss called me into his office and told me I was worthless and fired me on the spot. He didn't even pay me."
"Last night, I drank a whole bottle of Scotch and it didn't help a bit."
"Now, you come into this tavern, walked over to where I am sitting and drank the whole glass of poison I was going to drink."
