Three Construction Workers

An Italian, a Scotsman and a Chinese fellow are hired at a construction site.

The foreman points out a huge pile of sand and says to the Italian guy, “You're in charge of sweeping.”

To the Scotsman he say s, “You're in charge of shoveling.”

And to the Chinese guy, “You're in charge of supplies.”

He then says, “Now, I have to leave for a little while. I expect you guys to make a dent in that there pile.”

So the foreman goes away for a couple hours and when he returns, the pile of sand is untouched.

He asks the Italian, “Why didn't you sweep any of it?”

The Italian replies, “I have no broom. You said to the Chinese guy that he was in charge of supplies, but he has disappeared and I couldn’t find him anywhere.”

Then the foreman turns to the Scotsman and says, “And you, I thought I told you to shovel this pile.”

The Scotsman replies, “You did, but I couldn’t get myself a shovel! You left the Chinese guy in charge of supplies, but I couldn’t find him either.”

The foreman is really angry now and storms off toward the pile of sand to look for the Chinese guy ...Just then, the Chinese guy leaps out from behind the pile of sand and yells...





“SUPPLIES!!”
