Paddy the Bricklayer

[speedbird591]

Paddy goes to a new building site and sees the foreman. 'Could oi get a job as a bricklayer?' he asks. 'Are you any good?' says the foreman. 'Oh yes!' says Paddy, 'Oi'm very good.'

'I'll tell you what, then,' the foreman suggests. 'Build me a little wall over there and if it's any good I'll take you on.' A couple of hours later, Paddy comes back and takes the foreman to see his wall.

'Holy mother of God!' exclaims the foreman 'What a mess! I've never seen such a pile of crap - youre fired!'
'Oh, it's not that bad,' said Paddy, 'Oi've seen worse!'
'Worse? How could anything be worse than that? If you can show me a worse wall than that, you can have the job!'

So Paddy took the foreman up the road and round the corner and showed him a wall. The foreman was in a state of shock. 'This is unbelievably awful, I've never seen such a mess. Who the hell built this?' Paddy says 'Oi did.'

You have to get up pretty early to put one past ol' Paddy. ;-)

Except when he was shown two shovels and told to take his pick
