The Classic Transit and Dog Joke.
Courtesy of Terry Marsh, Southampton.
Four professionals, an engineer, a chemist, an accountant and a tree surgeon, were all boasting about how clever their dogs were.
The engineer reckoned his dog could do something really impressive, so the others asked him to show them;
"Setsquare, come here, shouted the engineer, do your stuff''. The dog walked over picked up a ruler and pencil and drew a perfect square on a piece of paper that had been placed on the floor. They all agreed that this was pretty impressive.
The Chemist however reckoned that his dog could go one better.
"Prescription, come here, do your stuff''. The dog ran over to the fridge and took out a bottle of milk, he then took a 10ml glass and poured the milk right to the top of the rim without spilling a drop. Again everyone thought this was pretty cool.
It was now the accountants turn; "Spreadsheet get to work". Spreadsheet ran into the kitchen brought out a box of twelve jam tarts. He then proceeded to open the box and divide the tarts into four equal piles, three tarts in each.
The four professionals were suitably impressed they turned to the tree surgeon, "What can your dog do"?
The tree surgeon shouted, "Lopper come here, get to work''.
Lopper ate the tarts, crapped on the paper, wrote out an invoice for three hundred quid and then jumped into the ford transit and drove off down the road!
