Two blonde guys were working for the city public works department. One
would dig a hole and the other would follow behind him and fill the
hole in.
They worked up one side of the street, then down the other, then
moved on to the next street, working 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'm impressed by
the effort you two are putting into your work, but I don't get it -- why
do you dig a hole, only to have your partner follow behind and fill it
up again?"
The hole digger wiped his brow and sighed, "Well, I suppose it
probably looks odd because we're normally a three-person team. But
today the guy who plants the trees called in sick."
