The telephone company needed to hire four more telephone pole installers
and the choice came down to two from Poland and two Irishmen.
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, when the two Polish guys reported back, the boss asked
them how many they had installed. They said it was tough going but
they'd put in twelve.
Forty-five minutes later, Paddy and Mick came
back in, totally exhausted.
"Well, how many poles did you guys
install?" said the boss
Mick wiped his brow and sighed, "Paddy and
me, we got three in. "
The boss gasped, "Three? Those two Polish
blokes put in twelve!"
"Yeah," said Mick, "but did ya see how much
they left sticking out of the ground.”
