Two gas company servicemen, a senior
training supervisor and a young trainee, were
out checking meters in a suburban
neighborhood. They parked their truck at the
end of the alley and worked their way to the
other end. At the last house a woman
looking out her kitchen window watched the
two men as they checked her gas meter.
Finishing the meter check, the
supervisor challenged his coworker to
a foot race down back to the truck.
As they came running up to the truck, they
realized the lady from that last house was
huffing and puffing right behind them. They
stopped and asked her what was wrong.
Gasping for breath, she replied, "When I see
two gas men running as hard as you two were,
I figured I'd better run too!"
