Three construction workers are working on the 20th floor of a new sky scaper downtown. It is lunch time and they all sit down together to eat lunch and enjoy the view. The first worker, who happens to be Mexican, opens his lunch to find tacos and says, "Tacos, tacos. I get tacos in my lunch everyday. If I get one more taco for lunch, I am going to jump off the edge of this building." The second worker, who happens to be Chinese, opens his lunch to find egg rolls and says, "Egg rolls again! I get egg rolls every day. I am so tired of egg rolls. If I get one more egg roll, I am going to jump off the edge of this building too." And the third worker, who is Norweigan, opens his lunch and says, "Peanut butter and jelly again today. That is all I ever get...peanut butter and jelly. If I get one more peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch, I too will jump off the edge of this building."So the next day, Pedro opens his lunch and finds more tacos. He gets up, goes over to the edge of the building an plunges to his death. Chang opens his lunch up and finds egg rolls and like Pedro, he too goes over to the edge and jumps off the edge. Sven opens his lunch to find a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, so he too jumps off the 20th floor of the building.A week later, the construction company holds a memorial service for the three workers. Their wives are sitting together. Pedro's wife says, "He never complained to me about tacos. I thought he loved tacos." And Chang's wife says, "My husband never complained to me about the egg rolls either. He loved egg rolls!" And the Norweigan's wife says, "Well, Sven packed his own lunch for 20 years!" |
