Laid Off Paddy and Mick were both laid off, so they went to the unemployment office. When asked his occupation Paddy answered, Knicker Stitcher. I sew da elastic onto ladies’ knickers and thongs. The clerk looked up Knicker Stitcher on his computer and, finding it classified as unskilled labor, he gave him $80 a week unemployment pay. Mick was next in line and when asked his occupation, he replied, Diesel Fitter. Since a diesel fitter was a skilled job, the clerk gave Mick $160 a week. When Paddy found out he was furious. He stormed back into the office to find out why his friend and co-worker was collecting double his pay. The clerk explained, Knicker Stitchers are unskilled labor and Diesel Fitters are skilled labor. What skill? yelled Paddy. I sew da elastic on da knickers and thongs, then Mick puts ‘em over his head and says: ‘Yep, deesll fit er.’
