Can it get any worse
Doesn't this make your job seem better?
A C-141 transport aircraft was preparing for departure from a base in
Thule, Greenland. They had been waiting for the truck to arrive to pump
out the aircraft's sewage holding tank. The Aircraft Commander was in a
hurry, the truck was late in arriving, and the Airman performing the
job was extremely slow in getting the tank pumped out. The Aircraft
Commander berated the Airman for his lack of speed and promised to
pursue punitive action.
The Airman responded, "Sir, I have no stripes, it is 20 below zero, I am
stationed in Thule, Greenland, and I am pumping shit out of airplanes.
Just what are you planning to do to punish me?"
