British Telecom needed to hire a team of telephone pole installers, and the
boss had to choose between a team of two guys from England and a team of
two Irish guys.
So the boss met both teams and said "Here's what we'll do:
Each team will be installing poles out on the new road for a day. The team
that installs the most poles gets the job."
Both teams headed right out
At end of the shift, the two English guys, came back and the boss asked t
hem how many they had installed.
They said that it was tough going, but they'd put in twelve.
Forty-five minutes later Paddy and Mick, the Irish guys, came back in and
they were totally exhausted. The boss asked, "Well, how many poles did you
guys install?"
Mick, the team leader, wiped his brow and sighed, "Paddy and me, we got
three in." "The boss gasped, "Three? Those two English guys put in twelve!"
"Yeah," said Mick, "but you should see how much they left sticking out of
the ground”.

Years ago it was suggested that, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." But since all the doctors are now Muslim, I've found that a bacon sandwich works great!
