Apologies to any Irish ..... 
Paddy and Murphy are working for the local council one day.
A woman watches them as they work in a park.
First Paddy digs a hole in the ground with a spade and then just as he is finished, Murphy comes along with his wheel barrow and completely fills the hole with dirt.
This goes on for some time and the woman is so confused that she goes over to ask what it is they are doing.
"First you dig a hole," she says. "And then you fill it in. Why?"
"Ah well, y'see." Says Paddy. "There are normally 3 of us on this job. But the guy that plants the tree is sick today!"
*********************************************
Paddy applied for a fermentation operator post at a famous Irish firm based in Dublin .
A Pole applied for the same job and since both applicants had similar qualifications, they were asked to take a test by the Manager.
When the results were in, both men had scored 19 out of 20.
The manager went to Paddy and said, "Thank you for coming to the interview, but we’ve decided to give the Pole the job." Paddy, "And why would you be doing that?" "We both got 19 questions correct." "This being Ireland and me being Irish surely I should get the job."
Manager, "We have made our decision not on the correct answers, but on the question you got wrong." Paddy "And just how would one incorrect answer be better than another?"
Manager, "Simple. On question number 7 the Pole wrote down, 'I don’t know.' You put down,‘Neither do I’.“
