Mel Posted February 3, 2011 #1 Posted February 3, 2011 INDOT uses a private contractor to paint the stripes on the state highways. The contractor boss hired a guy to paint the center stripe on a little used stretch of road. On the first day the guy painted about a mile-and-a-half of road and the boss told him "Good job, see you in the morning". The next day the guy painted only about three quarters-of-a-mile and the boss told him "Hey, you didn't do so good today, let's hope tomorrow is better". On the third day he only paints about a quarter-of-a-mile. The boss says "Well you have really slacked off. This is unacceptable. I'm going to have to let you go". The guy responds,"That's not fair!!! The more I paint the farther I have to walk to get to the paint bucket!".
Yammer Dan Posted February 4, 2011 #2 Posted February 4, 2011 Sounds like a State job.. but they would have somebody to carry the bucket!!
Scooter Bob Posted February 5, 2011 #3 Posted February 5, 2011 I remember my dad telling that as a Pollack joke over 30 years ago. But those jokes are against some law now I think.
