A woodie from a local woodturning club wanted a "sea change"
and applied for a job mopping the deck of a fishing boat.
The Captain asked, "Have you had much experience?" and
the woodie answered, "None at all, but I'm honest".
He got the job and on his first night aboard a large wave
swept him overboard. The 1st mate ran to the Captain and
said, "You know that woodie we took on - the one he said
was honest?"
"Well he just nicked off with the mop".
