The commanding officer of a regiment in the United States Marine Corps was about to give his

Morning briefing to his, battalion and company commanders while waiting for the coffee machine to finish brewing

The colonel decided to pose a question to all assembled.



He explained that his wife had been a bit frisky the night before and he failed to get his usual amount of sleep.

He poked the question of just how much sex is (work) and how much of it is pleasure? The regimental executive officer chimed in 75-25% in favor of work the captain said it was 50-50% the colonel said it was 75-25 in favor of pleasure depending of his state of in deliberation at the time



There being no consensus, the colonel turned and asked the private who was in charge of making the coffee. What is your opinion?

Without in hesitation, the young private responded, “Sir it has to be 100% pleasure.”



The colonel was surprised was, as you might have guess, asked why?



“Well sir if there was any work involved, the officers would have me doing it for them”.
