Sexual Consultants

This anecdote is an excerpt from the 1991 book  In Search of Excess: The Overcompensation of American Executives by Graef Crystal (pgs. 83-84):

Some years ago, I found myself hitching a ride on the corporate jet of one of my clients. A board meeting had just been held, and the jet was flying to Chicago with a group of outside directors. I was busily reading the Wall Street Journal and trying not to eavesdrop on the conversations that were taking place, but I couldn’t help overhearing the following exchange.

Director 1 to Director 2:  “Hey, Don, I just read in the paper that you retired as CEO of the XYZ Company. So what are you going to do to keep busy?”

Director 2: “Well, I’m going to be a consultant to my former company.”

Director 1 (with a trace of sarcasm): “What exactly does that mean?”

Director 2: “If you must know, I’m going to be a sexual consultant.”

Director 1: “A sexual consultant! What’s that?”

Director 2: “Well, when my former company signed me up as a consultant, they told me: ‘If we want any of your fucking advice, we’ll call you!’”
