#293: South Africa: Your tax rands at work

There are these two guys working for the municipality. One would
dig a hole, the other would follow behind him and fill the hole in.

They worked furiously all day without rest; one guy digging a hole,
the other guy filling it in again.

An onlooker was amazed at their hard work, but couldn't understand
what they were doing. So he asked the hole digger, "I appreciate the
effort you are putting into your work, but what's the story? You dig
a hole and your partner follows behind and fills it up again."

"The hole digger wiped his brow and sighed, "Eish, normally we are
a three-man team, but the guy who plants the trees is sick today!"

"Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall..."
