Bad Lunch
An Irishman, a Mexican and a Blond Guy were doing
construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor
of a building.
They were eating lunch and the Irishman said, “Corned
beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one
more time for lunch, I’m going to jump off this building.”
The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, “Burritos
again! If I get burritos one more time, I’m jumping too.”
The Blond Guy opened his lunch and said, “Bologna again! If
I get a bologna sandwich one more time, I’m jumping too.”
The next day, the Irishman opened his lunch box, saw corned
beef and cabbage, and jumped to his death.
The Mexican opened his lunch, saw a burrito, and jumped, too.
The Blond Guy opened his lunch, saw the bologna, and jumped
to his death as well.
At the funeral, the Irishman’s wife was weeping. She said,
“If I’d known how really tired he was of corned beef and
cabbage, I never would have given it to him again!”
The Mexican’s wife also wept and said, “I could have given
him tacos or enchiladas! I didn’t realize he hated burritos
so much.”
Everyone turned and stared at the Blonde’s wife.
The Blonde’s wife said, “Don’t look at me. He makes his own lunch.”
