Three out-of-work Polish friends went to the Canadian Embassy in Warsaw to apply for work in
Canada. The Canadian customs agent said, “I’m sorry, but Canadian immigration will
only allow experienced people into Canada. Please enter my office one at a time and tell
me your profession.”
The first Pole entered the room and said that he was a crotch maker, to which the customs
agent replied, “I’m sorry, but we do not require crotch makers in Canada.”
The second Pole walked into the room and stated that he was a stitcher-upper, which the
customs agent again replied that there was no work for such a “profession” in
Canada.
The third Pole proudly stepped into the room, walked up to the customs agent and said that
he was a diesel fitter. Looking through a list of approved professions, the customs agent
replied to the Pole, “Yes, since there are many categories of diesel workers in Canada, you are welcome to enter our country - congratulations!”
When the first two Poles heard about the success of the third Pole, they stormed back to
the customs agent and demanded to know why, since all 3 Poles had worked at the same
factory, they weren’t all chosen. The customs agent carefully looked through his list of
approved professions, and once again concluded that only the diesel fitter qualified for
work in Canada.
To clear up the confusion, the customs agent asked each Pole to detail their work
experience. The first Pole explained that he was the first in the assembly line - he made
crotches for pantyhose. The second Pole then took the pantyhose from the first Pole and
stitched the crotch together. Then it was passed to the third Pole who placed the
pantyhose on a hanger and proudly declared, “diesel fitter!”
