A guy goes into the Broomfield, Colorado, Post Office to apply for a job.

The interviewer asks him, "Are you allergic to anything?"

He replies, "Yes, caffeine. I can't drink coffee."

"Ok, Have you ever been in the military service?"

"Yes," he says, "I was in Afghanistan for one tour."

The interviewer says, "That will give you five extra points toward employment."
Then he asks, "Are you disabled in any way?"

The guy says, "Yes. A bomb exploded near me and I lost both my testicles."

The interviewer grimaces and then says, "Disabled in your country's service!

Well, that qualifies for extra bonus points. Okay. Looking at the regulations you
have got enough points for me to hire you right now.

Our normal hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

You can start tomorrow at 10:00 am, and plan on starting at
10:00 am every day."

"The guy is puzzled and asks, "If the work hours are from
8:00 am to 4:00 PM, why don't you want me here until 10:00 am?"

"This is a government job," the interviewer says.

"For the first two hours, we just stand around drinking coffee and scratching our balls.
No point in your coming in for that."

I worked in government for 35 years. Except for the preferences for military, it wasn't like that at all. Just sayn'.

Sounds like the shipyard union works at Philly-
Filmed one sleeping for 6 hrs and when reported to the union they said he was sound checking the space... @ $48.00 / hr...

As someone who has been both a union steward and a designed manager, I can say that the problem there is with the supervisor. Sleeping on the job is a safety hazard. No one wants to work with someone that can get you killed or seriously injured. If the supervisor has not properly documented the incident then there is little a grievance committee can do.

There was a huge problem with that yard - the Navy sent in a bunch of guys undercover for 6 months and after the investigation wrapped up the report said there were too many workers for job which was affecting safety and productivity - they recommended the work force be cut by 1/3 to 1/2 - that recommendation went to DC and the Boilermakers union - nothing was done and it was never heard of again... The navy pulled out and moved to another yard, I think in Norfolk - not sure what they're doing there now...
