Fishing

[PHerder]

A redneck was stopped by a game warden in Mississippi
recently with two ice chests full of fish. He was leaving a cove
well-known for its fishing. The game warden asked the man...

"Do you have a license to catch those fish?"

"No, sir," replied the redneck. "I ain't got none of
them there licenses, these here are my pet fish."

"Pet fish?"

"Yeah, every night, I take these here fish down to the
lake and let 'em swim 'round for awhile. Then, when I whistle, they
jump right back into these here ice chests and I take 'em back home."

"That's a bunch of crap. Fish can't do that."

The redneck looked at the warden for a moment and then
said, "It's the truth, Mr. Government Man, I'll show ya It really
works."

"OK," said the warden. "I've got to see this!"

The redneck poured the fish into the lake and stood and
waited. After several minutes, the warden says, "Well?"

Well, what," says the redneck.

The warden says, "When are you going to call them back?"


"Call who back?"

The FISH," replied the warden.

"What fish?" replied the redneck.

Moral of this story: We may not be as smart as some
city slickers, but we ain't as dumb as some government employee.

A man was known for his fishing prowess. He always came back with a large load of fish, often over his limit. The warden had been trying to find out how he did it. So one day he asked to go with the guy. Out in the boat, the fisherman takes out a stick of dynamite, lights it, and throws it overboard. After the explosion, there is a mess of fish floating. The guy gathers them in. The warden says that's illegal. The guy takes out another stick of dynamite, lights it, and hands it to the warden. He then asks, "Are you going to talk or fish?"

I just dropped under 1000 days before government retirement!

Thats 233 days of saved sickleave, 286 Saturdays and Sundays, 28 holidays, 43 days of annual leave; leaving just 409 days I have to go to work.

But who's counting?

At least you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. It's another 10 years till I am eligible to retire but more like 20 before I can. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cryin.gif

 

[bugimike]

Retire??? What's that, time for new skins??? Ah well, no rest for the wicked!!

 

[AweMan]

I went out with just over 30 years at 56, Burnt every minute of S.L. before I went {Boss hated that!} Had 448 hrs Anual Leave {Cash Out} @ just over $25.00 per hr. Plus got a compensation settlement for my hearing loss. But most of all I`m one happy camper NOT to have to put up with my last boss. I loved my work and the fellows I worked with but HE just wasn`t worth it! {A REAL control freak} {the whole shop and several adjoining shops disliked him with a passion} 7 Very experienced people retired as soon as they were eligible. That shop lost a great deal of expertise because of him. Otherwise they would have stayed {Including myself} I had never in 30 years encountered a person like that and never want to again either.
As for fishin` yep yep ....... been doin` some O that.
As for our game warden, Named Ekins, Don`t try it you can`t get away with it here, that man seems to be everywhere and at the right times too. Doubt he`d fall for pet fish /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif
