Sven and Ole joke (do your best Swedish accent when reading their lines) Sven and Ole both lost their jobs when the clothing manufacturer they worked at closed. At the unemployment office, Sven was asked what position he held at the factory, he replied ""Ya, well I sew women's underpants."" He was told to go to the next line to claim his unemployment check. Ole was asked the same question, to which he replied ""Diesel fitter."" He too was told to go to the next line to get his unemployment check. After Sven and Ole collected their checks, they compared them outside. Ole's check was twice as much, which made Sven furious. He stormed back inside and asked to talk with a manager. He demanded to know why his check was half of what Ole's was. The manager told him, ""Well, you were a tailor, your friend Ole has a specialty in engine repair."" Sven's anger was boiling over. He loudly told them, ""WHAT DO YOU MEAN? I sew the underpants and put them in a pile, Ole holds them up and says ""Ya, diesel fitter."" What has that got to do with engines?""
