Two gas company servicemen, a senior training supervisor and a young
trainee, were out checking meters in a suburban neighbourhood.
They parked their truck at one end of the alley and worked their way
to the other end. At the last house an older woman was looking out her kitchen
window watching 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 and 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
the 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 gas men running as
hard as you two were, I figure I’d better run too!’’
