Irish Diesel Fitter
Paddy and Mick were both laid off, so they went to the
unemployment office. When asked his occupation, Paddy
answered, 'Knicker Stitcher. I sew da elastic onto
ladies' knickers and thongs.'

The clerk looked up
Knicker Stitcher on his computer and, finding it
classified as unskilled labour, he gave him 80
dollars a week unemployment pay.

Mick was next in
and when asked his occupation replied, 'Diesel Fitter.'


Since a diesel fitter was a skilled job, the clerk
gave Mick 160 dollars a week.

When Paddy
found out he was furious. He stormed back into the office
to find out why his friend and co-worker was
collecting double his pay.

The clerk explained, 'Knicker Stitchers are unskilled labour
and Diesel Fitters are skilled labour.'


'What skill?' yelled Paddy. 'I sew da elastic on
da knickers and thongs, then Mick puts 'em over his
head and says: 'Yep, diesel fitter.'
