Boudreaux's Job Interview

Boudreaux went into the fish market to apply for a job. The boss thought to himself - I'm not hiring that lazy Cajun, so he decided to set a test for Boudreaux hoping he wouldn't be able to answer the questions and he'd be able to refuse him the job without getting into an argument.

The first question was:

- Without using numbers, represent the number 9.

Boudreaux says:

- Dat's easy

and proceeds to draw three trees.

The boss says:

- What in the world is that?

Boudreaux says:

- Tree 'n tree 'n tree makes nine.

- Fair enough - says the boss.

- Second questions, same rules, but represent 99.

Boudreaux stares into space for a while, then makes a smudge on each tree.

- Der ya go sir - he says.

The boss scratches his head and asks:

- How on earth do you get that to represent 99?

Boudreaux answers:

- Each tree is dirty now, so it's dirty tree 'n dirty tree 'n dirty tree - dat 99.

The boss is getting worried he's going to have to hire Boudreaux so he says:

- All right, question number 3. Same rules again, but this time represent the number 100.

Boudreaux stares into space again, then he shouts:

- I got it!

He makes a little mark at the base of each tree and says:

- Der ya go sir - 100.

The boss looks at Boudreaux's attempt and thinks, "Ha! got him this time." He then tells Boudreaux:

- Go on, Boudreaux, you must be crazy if you think that represents a 100.

Boudreaux leans forward and points to the little marks at the tree bases and says...:

- A little dog comes along and craps by each tree, so now ya got - dirty tree an' a turd, dirty tree an' a turd, and dirty tree an' a turd, which makes 100.

- When do I start my job?!

Bush and Bin Laden

George W. Bush and Osama bin Laden are having a conversation via Al Jazeera television. Bin Laden tells George Bush:

- There is no point of engaging in further war. I can see total peace in the future!

George Bush replies:

- Oh yeah and tell me what you see?

Osama answers:

- I can see New York, with new great buildings on one side and beautiful new buildings on the other side, and everything is peaceful and wonderful.

George Bush says:

- Wow is that what you see? Well I'll tell ya what I see for the future of Afghanistan... I see a house here, a house there, a small building here and small building there, but there are signs hanging in the middle of the street.

Osama asks:

- And what do they say?

George answers:

Patient Mother

A man observed a woman in the grocery store with a three year old girl in her basket. As they passed the cookie section, the child asked for cookies and her mother told her "no." The little girl immediately began to whine and fuss, and the mother said quietly:

- Now Ellen, we just have half of the aisles left to go through; don't be upset. It won't be long.

He passed the mother again in the candy aisle. Of course, the little girl began to shout for candy. When she was told she couldn't have any, she began to cry. The mother said:

- There, there, Ellen, don't cry. Only two more aisles to go, and then we'll be checking out.

The man again happened to be behind the pair at the check-out, where the little girl immediately began to clamor for gum and burst into a terrible tantrum upon discovering there would be no gum purchased today.

The mother patiently said:

- Ellen, we'll be through this check out stand in five minutes, and then you can go home and have a nice nap.

The man followed them out to the parking lot and stopped the woman to compliment her:

- I couldn't help noticing how patient you were with little Ellen...

The mother broke in:

- My little girl's name is Tammy... I'm Ellen.
