Goodness it had me laughing! We had to add the graphic design one in tho... as per usual it seems they forgot we were part of the process...
• Q: How many sub-editors does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
• A: We can't tell whether you mean "insert a new lightbulb" or "have sexual relations inside a lightbulb". Can we reword it to remove ambiguity?
• Q: How many art directors does it take to change a lightbulb?
• A: Does it have to be a lightbulb?
• Q: How many proofreaders does it take to change a lightbulb?

• Q: How many writers does it take to change a lightbulb?
• A: Why do we have to change it?
• Q: How many editors does it take to change a lightbulb?
• A: It was supposed to be in place last week!
• Q: How many publishers does it take to change a lightbulb?
• A: Three. One to screw it in and two more to hold down the editor.
• Q: How many graphic designers does it take to change a lightbulb?
• There's not enough time to change it a 3rd time - we'll just have to make it look better'
• Q: How many marketing directors does it take to change a lightbulb?
• A: It isn't too late to make it neon, is it?
• Q: How many advertising directors does it take to change a lightbulb?
• A: We're not sure because the client might change it tomorrow. Cut some editorial anyway.
• Q: How many sales directors does it take to change a lightbulb?
• A: (pause) I get it! It's one of those lightbulb jokes, right?
