Two gas company servicemen, a senior training supervisor and a young
trainee, were out checking meters in a suburban neighborhood.
They parked their truck the end of the alley and worked their way to the
other end. At the last house, a woman looking out her kitchen window
watched the two men as they checked her gas meter.
Finishing the meter check, the senior supervisor challenged his
younger co-worker to a foot race down the alley back to the truck to
prove that an older guy could outrun a younger one.
As they came running up to the truck, they realized the lady from
that last house was huffing and puffing right behind them.
They stopped and asked her what was wrong.
Gasping for breath, she replied, "When I see two men from the gas
company running as hard as you two were, I figured I'd better run too!"
