"Blondes and the Telephone Pole"

A phone company put an ad in the paper in order to
recruit workers. The next day, two groups of workers
show up - a crew of five men and a crew of five blonde
women.

The company can not decide who to give the job to, so
they give the two groups a test. The company boss says,
"Each crew will receive a telephone pole that must be
installed into the ground. Whoever is able to hammer it
in first will get the job."

Both groups agree that this is a fair test, so off they
go in the Company trucks with the long telephone poles
sticking out the back. A few hours pass, and finally,
at 5:00, the male crew returns. "Yes!" they shout. "We
came back first, so we get the job!!"

"Good work, men," says the boss, "However, we must wait
until the other crew comes back to make sure that the
reason they're delayed is not because of traffic or the
truck breaking down."

"Fine, no problem," say the men. An hour passes, two
hours pass, three hours. Finally, at 8:30, the Blonde
crew arrives. All the group is flushed and breathing
hard, as if they had just gone through harsh labor.

"What happened to you? What took so long?" asks the
boss incredulously.

"What do you mean, 'what took so long'?? Do we get the
job?"

"YOU get the job? No way! The men were back here HOURS
ago!"

"Well, of course they were," say the blondes. "They
only put the pole in halfway!!"
