New business was opening
开业大吉

A new business was opening ... and one of the owner's friends wanted to send him flowers for the occasion. They arrived at the new business site and the owner read the card,.... "Rest in Peace." The owner was angry and called the florist to complain. After he had told the florist of the obvious mistake and how angry he was, the florist replied, "Sir, I'm really sorry for the mistake, but rather than getting angry, you should imagine this: somewhere, there is a funeral taking place today, and they have flowers with a note saying, ... 'Congratulations on your new location!'"

新公司开业了，开业典礼上，经理的一个朋友送他一个花篮。经理高声朗读着花篮上的贺卡：“安息吧。”经理生气极了，打电话找来卖花的人要质问他是怎么回事。花店老板来了，看到这个明显的错误和经理气急败坏的样子，他说：“我真得很抱歉。但是与其这么生气，你倒不如这样想：有另外一个地方，今天要举办一个葬礼，他们将会收到一个花篮，留言条上写着‘恭喜你有了新的归属！’”
