The boss in an oil rig went out to find that none of his subordinates were there.
One finally ran up, panting heavily.
"Sorry, sir! I can explain.
you see, I had a date and it ran a little late I ran to the bus but missed it, I hailed a cab but it broke down, found a farm, bought a horse but it dropped dead, ran 10 miles, and now I'm here."
The boss was very skeptical about this explanation but at least he was here so he let him go.
Moments later, eight more subordinates came up to the boss panting, he asked them why they were late.
"Sorry, sir! I had a date and it ran a little late, I ran to the bus but missed it, I hailed a cab but it broke down, found a farm, bought a horse but it dropped dead, ran 10 miles, and now I'm here."
The boss eyed them, feeling very skeptical but since he let the first guy go, he let them go, too.
The last subordinate jogged up to the boss, panting heavily.
"Sorry, sir! I had a date and it ran a little late, I ran to the bus but missed it, I hailed a cab but..."
"Let me guess," the boss interrupted, "it broke down."
"No," said the subordinate, "there were so many dead horses in the road, it took forever to get around them."
