Andy wants a job as a signalman on the railways. He is told to meet the inspector at the signal box. The inspector puts this question to him: "What would you do if you realised that 2 trains were heading for each other on the same track?"
Andy says,"I would switch the points for one of the trains."
"What if the lever broke?" asked the inspector.
"Then I'd dash down out of the signal box," said Andy,"and I'd use the manual lever over there."
"What if that had been struck by lightning?"
"Then," Andy continues,"I'd run back into the signal box and phone the next signal box."
"What if the phone was engaged?"
"Well in that case," persevered Andy,"I'd rush down out of the box and use the public emergency phone at the level crossing up there."
"What if that was vandalised?"
"Oh well then I'd run into the village and get my uncle Silas."
This puzzles the inspector, so he asks, "Why would you do that?"
Came the answer, "Because he's never seen a train crash."

A secretary was leaving the office one Friday evening
when she encountered Mr. Jones, the Chief Finance
Officer, standing in front of a shredder with a piece of
paper in his hand.
"Listen," said Mr. Jones, "this is important, and my
secretary has already left. Can you make this thing
work?"
"Certainly," said the secreatry. She turned the
machine on, inserted the paper, and pressed the start
button.
"Excellent, excellent!" said Mr. Jones as his paper
disappeared inside the machine. "I just need one copy."

The Personal Secretary to the Chief Finance Officer observed that every morning, the moment the CFO entered his room, he would walk to the window, pull the drapes aside, stare intently outside for a few minutes and then come and settle in his seat.
She had watched people mutter a prayer, but this was getting intriguing. She finally asked the boss what this was all about.
He took her to the window, pulled the drapes aside and said "See that tall Asoka tree on the left? and see that chimney on the right?"
"Yes, Sir"
"Well, I need to concentrate on the tree and the chimney to remember that debit is on the left and credit is on the right"

Four men were bragging about how smart their dogs were. The first man was an Engineer, the second was an Acccountant, the third man was a Chemist, the fourth was a Government Worker. To show off, the engineer called to his dog, "T-Square, do your stuff." T-Square trotted over to a desk, took out some paper and
a pen and promptly drew a circle, a square, and a triangle.
Everyone agreed that was pretty smart.
But the Accountant said his dog could do better. He called his dog and said, "Spreadsheet, do your stuff." Spreadsheet went out into the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into 4 equal piles of 3 cookies each.
Everyone agreeed that was good.
But the Chemist said his dog could do better. He called his dog and said, "Measure, do your stuff." Measure got up, walked over to the fridge, took out a quart of milk, got a 10 ounce glass from the cupboard and poured exactly 8 ounces without spilling a drop.
Everyone agreed that was good.
Then the three men turned to the Government Worker and said, What can your dog do?". The Government Worker called his dog and said, "Coffee Break, do your stuff." Coffee Break jumped to his feet, ate the cookies, drank the milk, dumped on the paper, assaulted the other three dogs, claimed he injured his back while
doing so, filed a grievance report for unsafe work conditions, put in for Worker's Compensation, and went home for the rest of the day on sick leave.
