Joke: Career's Day

It's Career Day at school and the teacher is having the students stand up, state their parents' occupation, and then spell it.

Davie stands up and says, "My dad's a doctor. And that's D O C T O R. Doctor."

"Very good," the teacher says to Davie. "Mike?"

Mike stands up. "My mom's a lawyer. L A W Y E R. Lawyer."

"Excellent. Bruce?"

Bruce gets up and says, "Uhh, my daddy, he be one of dem 'sheet metal workers. Dat's S H I . . . "

"Ummm, no, Bruce," the teacher corrects, "That's not the way you spell it. Try it again."

"Uhhh, 'Sheet Metal Worker.' S H I . . . "

"Tell you what, Bruce, why don't you go up to the board and spell it out up there. Little Kevin, your turn."

Little Kevin watches Bruce shuffle¹ off to the blackboard. "Well, my dad's a bookie and I can't spell that. But I can give you two to one odds² that Bruce spells 'shit' when he gets up to the blackboard."
