Spooning . . .
Freda and Kitty hear about a very new and advanced restaurant called ‘Glat's Best' which has just opened in Boro Park and decide to try it out. When the waiter arrives to take their order, Kitty notices that he has a spoon sticking out of his shirt pocket – in fact she notices that all the waiters have spoons sticking out of their shirt pockets. She thinks this very odd and after they give their order, she mentions it to Freda. Freda says, "Why not ask the waiter about the spoon when he returns?"
The waiter arrives with their chicken soup and Kitty says, "Excuse me for asking, but why the spoon?"
"Well," he explains, "when the restaurant first opened, Mr Cohen hired BALEBOSS CONSULTING to ensure that our productivity was at its highest level. After a full analysis, they told us that every time a spoon is dropped, it takes time to pick it up, take it to the kitchen and return with a new one. BALEBOSS said that if the waiters were better prepared, we could reduce these unnecessary kitchen trips and the restaurant would save 40 man hours per week. So we all carry a spoon now."
Freda and Kitty thank him for the explanation and he leaves them to enjoy the soup. But then, guess what? Freda accidentally drops her spoon whilst half way through her soup. Almost immediately their waiter appears and quickly replaces the dropped spoon with the spare one from his pocket. "I'll get another spoon next time I go to the kitchen," he says, "it’ll save me having to make an extra trip to get it right now."
Kitty is impressed but then notices a small piece of string hanging out of the waiter's fly. Looking around, she sees that all the waiters have pieces of string hanging from their flies. So before he can walk away, she points to the string and says, "Excuse me, but what’s with the string?"
"It’s simple, madam," he quietly replies. "BALEBOSS also discovered that we waiters can save time when we have to visit the toilet. By tying string to the tip of our …. you know what, we can pull it out without touching it and thus eliminate the need to wash our hands afterwards. This reduces the time we spend in the toilet."
"But after you get it out," asks Kitty giggling, "how do you put it back?"
"Well," he whispers, "I don't know about the others, but I use the spoon."
eeeeeeeeeeew
