There were two guys working for the city. One would dig a hole -- he would dig, dig, dig.©JOKEDEMO.COM

The other would come behind him and fill the hole -- fill, fill, fill. These two men worked furiously; one digging a hole, the other filling it up again.©JOKEDEMO.COM

A man was watching from the sidewalk and couldn't believe how hard these men were working, but couldn't understand what they were doing. Finally he had to ask them.©JOKEDEMO.COM

He said to the hole digger, "I appreciate how hard you work, but what are you doing? You dig a hole and your partner comes behind you and fills it up again!"©JOKEDEMO.COM

The hole digger replied, "Oh yeah, must look funny, but the guy who plants the trees is sick today."
