A guy goes to the local council to apply for a job in parks and gardens.
The interviewer asks him, "Are you allergic to anything?"
He replies, "Yes, caffeine."
"Have you ever worked for the public service before?"
"Yes, I was in the army." he says, "I was in Iraq for two tours."
The interviewer says, "That will give you 5 extra points toward
employment."
Then he asks, "Are you disabled in any way?"
The guy says, "Yes. A mine exploded near me when I was there and I lost
both of my testicles.
The interviewer grimaces and then says, "O.K. You've got enough points for
me to hire you right now. Our normal hours are
From 8.00am to 4.00pm. You can start tomorrow at 10.00am - and plan on
starting at 10.00am every day."
The guy is puzzled and asks, "If the work hours are from 8.00am to 4.00pm,
why don't you want me here until 10.00am? I'm not looking for any special
favours"
"What you have to understand is that this is a local council job," the
interviewer says, "For the first two hours, we just
stand around drinking coffee and scratching our balls. There's no point in
you coming in for that."
