So the boss met with both teams and said "Here's what we'll do. Each team will be
installing poles out on the new road for a day. The team that installs the most phone
poles gets the job."
Both teams headed right out. At end of the shift, Pat and Mike, the Irish guys, came
back and the boss asked them how many they had installed. They said that it was
tough going, but they'd put in twelve.
Forty-five minutes later, Bud and Buddy, the Newfoundland guys came back in and
they were totally exhausted.
The boss asked, "Well, how many poles did you guys install?"
Bud, the team leader, wiped his brow and sighed, "Buddy and me, we got tr’ee in.
"The boss gasped, "Three? Those two Irish guys put in twelve!"
"Yeah," said Bud, "but you should see how much they left sticking out of the ground!"
