The Painter
« on: May 20, 2010, 06:32:30 PM »

There was one Pinoy who came to America and looked at the classified ads for painting jobs. He came across the "Help Wanted" section that read - "Wanted: Painter of Porch", and thought that was perfect for his capabilities.And so he went to the American who posted the ad. American: I need my porch painted in a day. You need to scrape all the paint up to the bare surface, and apply a coat of primer then two final coats of orange paint. Can you do that?
Pinoy: Oh yes, sir.. yes, sir! I can remoob the paint then apply orange paint beri well!
American: Ok! You got the job. Just get everything you need from the trunk of the car.After 3 hours...Pinoy: Sir, work is pinis oreydi!
American: Wow! I'm amazed you did it in 3 hours. Did you scrape all the old paint to the bare surface?
Pinoy: Oh yes, sir! Yes, sir! I tanggalated all the old paint!
American: Well then, here's your $20 bonus!
Pinoy: Golly, sir! Tenk yu beri much. But sir, you don't heb a porch.. your car is a BMW...!

Ooouuuuch!

I swiped that joke from a website run by Filipinos who live in Arizona. They manage to be quite open about making fun of their own life and their life in Arizona--the USA, etc. I was hesitant for a bit to put it up here--there's always someone to offend after all, but please take it in the spirit it was offered, even if indirectly.

If it seems boorish and insensitive, oh well--guilty as charged! (at times anyway)

BUT--if ever there was a people who would perish were it not for their ability to maintain a sense of humor no matter how desperate things become and under all conditions, it's probably Filipinos!
Whether you think you can or think you can't--you're right!
