Construction monkeys

Postby Blackal » Mon Nov 26, 2012 7:35 am

A woman was looking at the animals on display in a pet store.
A few minutes later a man walked in and said to the shopkeeper, 'I'll take a Construction monkey, please'.The shopkeeper nodded and took a monkey out of a cage.He put a collar and leash on the animal and handed it the man saying, 'That'll be $5,000.'
The man paid and left with the monkey.
The surprised woman went to the shopkeeper and said, 'That was a very
expensive monkey. Most of them are only a few hundred dollars. Why did that
one cost so much?
'The shopkeeper answered, 'Ah, that's a Construction Monkey. He can drive
trucks, set formwork, erect scaffolding and steel and run pipe. All with no
back talk or complaints. He's well worth the money.'
The woman then spotted a monkey in another cage.
'That one's even more expensive! $10,000! What does it do?'
 'Oh, that one' replied the shopkeeper, 'That's a Project Field Engineer,
he can read drawings, answer RFI's, make As-built's and inspect quality. A
very useful monkey indeed.'
The woman looked around a little longer and found a monkey with a $50,000
price tag.
 The shocked woman exclaimed, 'This one costs more than all the others put
together! What in the world can it do?'


'Well,' said the shopkeeper, 'I've never actually seen him do anything
except drink beer, piss everybody off and play with his dick. But his papers say he's a Safety Officer.'
If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........

See if that works .....

Mr. Spock is my role model so be advised; I possess no (discernible) sense of humour.

It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.
