I'M IN LINE
A man goes into the unemployment office in Los Angeles to look at job
openings on the bulletin board. Since there aren't many jobs it
doesn't take him long. Then, just as he's on his way out, he spots
something.
"Wanted," it says, "Single man, willing to travel, must have own
scissors $500 per day, plus company car and all expenses."
Well, it sounds a bit too good to be true, but he makes a note and
walks up at the counter. "I'd like to apply for this job," he says,
"reference number E/784/B46."
"Oh, that one," says the clerk. "It's a model agency right here in Los
Angeles. They're looking for a pubic hair inspector."
"The agency supplies girls who model underwear and bathing suits.
Before they go on the catwalk, they'd report to you and you would
inspect them carefully and snip off any wisps of pubic hair showing.
It pays well, but there are a few drawbacks. It involves quite a lot
of travel. The Bahamas, Tahiti, Paris, London... that sort of thing.
"I reckon I could learn to live with all that," says the fellow. "I'd
really like to apply for the job."
The clerk shrugs and says, "OK, here's an application form and a bus
ticket to Portland."
"Portland"!!!! Why in the world would I want to go to Portland?"
"Well," says the clerk, "that's where the end of the;;;
application line is at the moment."
