A weatherman on a local television station was having a bad year. Although he was a qualified meteorologist, week after week his predictions failed until he became a laughingstock. Finally, the station fired him.

After some time off, he decided to look for work in a part of the country where his past would not be known, and try to get a fresh start. Filling out a job application at another station, he came to a line that said, “Reason for leaving previous position.”

He wrote, “The climate didn’t agree with me.”
