The Story of 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, 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 returning 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 ozs 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.

drank the milk

sh*t 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 .

AND THAT'S WHY I WANT TO WORK FOR THE GOVERNMENT !

Take Time

A day passed is a day gone

You can make more money

I too liked your cat story. When I worked for the government as a contractor at NASA (Houston) we had a saying 'it was good enough for government work.'
We didn't really believe that or we would not have made it to the Moon.

Well that cat wasn't caught napping was it? The people who come up with these jokes are really clever. Thanks for you comments on my posts. I am gradually finding my way around blogging ever so slowly. Cheers Margaret.
