Four cats
The Four Cats !
Four men were bragging about how smart their cats were.
The first man was an Engineer, the second man was an Accountant, the third
man was a Chemist,,,,,,and the fourth man was a Government Employee.
To show off, the Engineer called his cat, "T-square, do your stuff."
T-square pranced over to the desk, took out some paper and pen and promptly
drew a circle, a square, and a triangle. Everyone agreed that was pretty
smart.
But the Accountant said his cat could do better. He called his cat and said,
"Spreadsheet, do your stuff." Spreadsheet went out to the kitchen and
returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into 4 equal piles of 3
cookies.............Everyone agreed that was good.
But the Chemist said his cat could do better. He called his cat and
said,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"Measure, do your stuff." Measure got up, walked to the
fridge, took out a quart of milk,, got a 10 ounce glass from the cupboard
and poured exactly 8 ounces without spilling a drop into the glass.
Everyone agreed that was pretty good.
Then the three men turned to the Government Employee and said, "What can
your cat do?"
The Government Employee called his cat and said,,,,, "CoffeeBreak,,,,do your
stuff."
CoffeeBreak jumped to his feet,,,,,,,,,,,
ate the cookies,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
drank the milk,,,,,,,,,
tulip on the paper,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
screwed the other three cats,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
claimed he injured his back while doing so,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions,,,
put in for Workers Compensation...............and
went home for the rest of the day on sick leave.............!!!!!
