An Italian, and Irishman and a Chinese fellow are
hired at a construction site. The foreman points out
a huge pile of sand and says to the Italian guy, "You're
in charge of sweeping", To the Irishman he says
"You're in charge of shoveling." And to the Chinese
guy, "you're in charge of supplies".
He then says "Now, I have to leave for a little while.
I expect you guys to make a dent in that there pile."
So the foreman goes away for a couple hours, and
when he returns, the pile of sand is untouched. He
says to the Italian, "Why didn't you sweep any of it?"
The Italian replies in a heavy accent, "I didn't have
a broom. You said the Chinese a guy was in a charge
of supplies, but he a disappeared and
I couldn't a find a him."
Then the foreman turns to the Irishman and asks
why he didn't shovel. The Irishman replies in his
heavy brogue, "Aye, ye did lad. But I counna get
meself a shovel. Ye left the chinese guy in chairge
of supplies, but I counna fin' him."
The foreman is really angry now, and storms off toward
the pile of sand looking for the Chinese guy... Just then,
the Chinese guy springs out from behind the pile of
sand and yells....
"SUPPLIES!!
BETTY CROCKER I AIN'T!
A husband is at home watching a football game
when his wife interrupts, "Honey, could you
fix the light in the hallway? It's been flickering for weeks now."
He looks at her and says angrily, "Fix the light? Now? Does it
look like I have a G.E. logo printed on my forehead? I don't think so."
"Well then, could you fix the fridge door? It won't close right."
To which he replied, "Fix the fridge door? Does it look like I
have Westinghouse written on my forehead? I don't think so."
"Fine," she says. "Then could you at least fix the steps to the
front door? They're about to break."
"I'm not a damn carpenter and I don't want to fix the steps." he
says. "Does it look like I have Ace Hardware written on my forehead? I
don't think so." I've had enough of you. I'm going to the bar."
So he goes to the bar and drinks for a couple of hours. He starts
to feel guilty about how he treated his wife, and decides to go home
and help out.
As he walks into the house, he notices the steps are already
fixed. As he enters the house, he sees the hall light in working. As he goes
to get a beer, he notices the fridge door is fixed.
"Honey, how did all this get fixed?
She said, "Well, when you left, I sat outside and cried. Just then
a nice young man asked me what was wrong, and I told him. He offered to do all the repairs, and all I had to do was either screw him or bake him
a cake.."
The husband said, "So, what kind of a cake did you bake him?"
She replied, "Hellooooooooooooooo, do you see Betty Crocker
written on my forehead? I don't think so."
