Sat Nov 3, 2007 9:23 AM CST : Unemployment Benefits
Paddy and Mick were both laid off, so they went to the unemployment office.
When asked his occupation, Paddy answered "Panty Sticher. I sew da elastic onto ladies panties and tongs."
The clerk looked up panty sticher on his computer and, finding it classified as unskilled labour, he gave him £80:00 per 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 him £160:00 per 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, "Panty Stichers are unskilled labour and Diesel Fitters are skilled labour."
"What skill?" yelled Paddy. "I sew da elastic on da panties and tongs, then Mick puts 'em over his head and says, Yep diesel fitter."
