Default OT- another groaner

An Italian, a Scotsman and a Chinese man are hired at a construction site.
The foreman points out a huge pile of sand.
He says to the Italian guy, 'You're in charge of sweeping.'
To the Scotsman he says, 'You're in charge of shovelling.'
And to the Chinese guy, 'You're in charge of supplies.'
He then says, 'Now, I have to leave for a little while.I expect you men
to make a dent in that pile of sand..'

So when the foreman returns after being away for a couple of hours the
pile of sand is untouched.
He asks the Italian, 'Why didn't you sweep any of it?'
The Italian replies, 'I no hava no broom. You said to the Chinesea fella
he was in charge of supplies, but he hasa disappeared and I no coulda
finda him nowhere.'
Then the foreman turns to the Scotsman and says, 'And you, I thought I
told you to shovel this pile.'
The Scotsman replies, 'Aye, that ye did laddie, boot ah could nae get
meself a shoovel. Ye left yon Chinese gadgie in chairge of supplies,
boot ah couldna fin' him neither.'
The foreman is really angry now. He storms off toward the pile of sand
to look for the Chinese gent.
Just then, the Chinese man leaps out from behind the pile of sand and yells,





















'SUPPLIES!!!'

If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace
happiness, then go ahead and worry! If they can't, why worry?

Enjoy every moment of your life...there is no second chance.
