I never cease to be amazed at what some people on this lovely planet are and are not capable of.... Today i was talking to a fella and he told me about one of his mates , who started work on a building site yesterday...
All was grand, he was working away through the day, and the boss told him to take away the dumper and fill her up with diesel... That was grand, so the lad jumped up onto the dumper and off he went to get some diesel..

Ten mins went by, and no sign of the lad... Twenty mins and still no appearance, so boss was wondering what was going on, and went after him, for fear he might have crashed it or something... So anyways, they found him a couple of hundred yards down the road, the dumper barely chugging up the road. Went up to the lad to see what was wrong, only to find that the genious had filled the front bucket with 100 euros worth of diesel, and the dumper was barely running on fumes....!!!! :eek:

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa.

Oh god that's funny,
Then you can just imagine him walking away with a fag in his mouth and throwing it back wards and setting the diesel alight.

The dumbest thing I ever did was when my boss mumbled at me to go and get a "standard and a half milk" from the shop.

Twat that I am I got a regular milk and a half milk and was half way out the door when I remembered that the newspaper is called "The Standard" DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH
Thankfully your wan at the til took back the big milk and gave may the paper but I felt some f*cking tool imagining going back to the shop with the two milks oh the near shame.

that reminds of one the boss told me... when he first started work over forty years ago, any new recruits would always get the 'special' first job..!! (he didn't tell me his..), but anyways there was this new fella who started one day, and this poor fella couldn't read or write, so the boys told him his first job was to take of a list of items and go down to the hardware shop and get them...
What the boys had wrote down on the list were, "2 glass hammers, 16 sky hooks and a dozen rubber nails... . and send the fool farther" ...
so off shot the lad down to the shop, where of course, he was told the 'items' were not in stock, and was sent to another shop... The poor bastard ended up doing a few miles around the town visiting every shop in town.!!!

Hear a similar one to that of a lad starting work in a hotel in birr and when the guinness tap stoped he was told to go find the main guinness lineand sent him to the pub next door to locate it. The bar manager rang ahead and told the barman next door to send him on. This went on and on and on. If it's true he was some muppet.

I've heard all the ones on sites, glass hammer, sky hook, skirting hammer.

I saw a guy get off a bus, light up a fag with a match while walking through petrol pumps on his way to the shop, wave the match out and throw it away - in the direction of a petrol pump. Some people...

Jeez the poor chap. Live and learn. What happened? Serious laughter I presume.

Nice story, but can't believe anyone could be that thick? Where was he from, Wexford? Was his name Scobie by any chance?

ratboy

he could be a minister for defence.

Does exist. Have bought one in the past, to the annoyance of a previous boss.

A mate of mine was overseeing the buliding of a fence around his dad's farm. He brought the tools out and distributed them to the labourers. Handing one chap a spirit level, he asked him if he knew how to use it. The guy looked at him as if to say 'What do you take me for?' and said of course he did.
My friend came back a couple of hours later to find the guy hammering a fencepost into the ground... with the spirit level.
