There is a joke, not sure how long it's been around, about a guy that went to work for a manufacturing facility and was put to work operating a machine. The guy had to pull a lever all day to make some sort of widget. After several months, he became very proficient at pulling that lever and making the widgets. His boss noticed and asked the guy if he could multitask. The guy said he could multitask. The boss asked if he could install another machine with a lever similar to the one the man already operated. The guy said he'd try. The second machine was installed and the guy spent his days pulling a lever with each hand making lots of widgets and doohickies. After several months, he was very proficient at pulling both levers. The boss noticed and asked the guy if he could multitask a little more. Could the guy press a pedal with one foot while pulling the two levers? The guy thought he could and the third machine was installed. The guy spent several months pulling two levers and stepping on the pedal with one foot making widgets, doohickies and thingamabobs. As before, he became very proficient. The boss showed up one day and asked if the guy thought he could push another pedal. The guy said he thought he could do so and a fourth machine was installed. The guy spent months pulling two levers and pushing on two pedals making widgets, doohickies, thingamabobs and whatchacallits. One day, the guy was busy pulling levers and pushing pedals and making alot of parts. The boss stopped by and asked the guy how things were going. The guy, thinking the boss wanted him to do one more task, said, "Hey, you stick a feather duster in my ass and I'll dust off your desk."
Well, I'm trying to figure out where to put another feather duster. Not literally, ya understand. It's getting busy around here!!!
