A building contracter
hires an Englishman, an Irishman, and a Chinaman. He gathers them all in his
office and tells each of them their jobs. The Englishman to shovel a pile of
sand. The Irishman has to take the sand in the wheelbarrow to the truck. The
Chinaman is in charge of supplies.
The boss comes back two hours
later and he sees the Englishman and the Irishman having a cup of tea.
''So have you done the work then?'' he asks.
The workers both
shake their heads and tell him that the Chinaman didn't give them a shovel
or a wheelbarrow. The boss is infuriated by this and asks the workers if
they have seen the Chinaman, they tell him they thought they saw him going
toward the truck. So the boss sets out towards the truck and just as he is
getting close to the truck the Chinaman jumps out from behind a wall and
yells, "SUPPLIES!"
