I don't geddit ... what's so funny???!!!

I had a conversation today that went something like this ...

Him : Hey, morning ...

Me : Morning boss

Him : So how's everything moving along?

Me : Things are moving ... but ya'know ... bound to have hiccups and stuff

Him : What do you suggest be done to fix the issues?

Me : Well ... it's mostly people related problems. Still trying to get around that and see what's the best approach.

Him : Why don't you just go directly and talk to them and speak your mind.

Me : Can't do that boss. I have a low tolerance for stupidity.

Him : Hahahahahahahahahahaha ... *turns around and walks away*

Me : *I don't geddit ... what's so funny? Does he think I'm joking?!*
