Laws Of Slow People

"Slow Worker"

A young man was a slow worker and found it
difficult to hold down a job. After a visit to the
employment office, he was offered work at the
local zoo. When he arrived for his first day, the
keeper, aware of his reputation, told him to
take care of the tortoise section.

Later, the keeper dropped by to see how the
young man was doing and found him standing
by an empty enclosure with the gate open.

"Where are the tortoises?" he asked.

"I can't believe it," said the new employee, "I
just opened the door and whooooosh, they
were gone!"

"Laws Of Slow People"

1. Slow people always walk side by side, even
if they don't know each other.

2. They drive side by side, too. If they can't find
another slow driver to pair up with, they drive
in the fast lane.

3. Slow walkers never look back. When they
drive, they never look in their rear view mirrors,
either.

4. Slow people drift sideways so they'll block
the path of anyone trying to pass them. If two
people or vehicles are trying to get around them
at the same time, they drift into the path of the
one that is moving at the highest speed.

5. Follow behind a slow person in the grocery
store and you'll wind up with soggy ice cream
every time.
