play on words

Topic about a joke.Today my wife attended ESS class in Kyoto and brought back today's material discussing about English joke.Among them what I liked most was as follows.
The reason so many businesses fail these days is that corporate members have too many bored members.

It's a play on words between bored members and board members.Most of other jokes she showed me was such kind of pun jokes,but why I was impressed by no other jokes but this one is that this joke reflects realy situations in some companies.When a company faces some financial difficulties,the easiest and the most likely approach they make is reducing the number of employees regardless of their having so many board members.
