A telephone man joined the Army. As part of his basic training, he went
out on the rifle range. He fired 99 shots at the target, and missed the
target with every shot. His Drill Instructor tried to find out why.

"What’s the matter with you?" asked the DI. "Why can’t you hit the
target? What were you in civilian life?" "I was a telephone man,"
replied the new recruit, "and I don’t know why I can’t hit the target.
Let me see..."

The telephone man checked his rifle, checked his rifle again, and
checked his rifle a third time. He then put his finger in front of the
muzzle, pulled the trigger, and blew the end of his finger off.

"Well," the phone man said, writhing in pain, "the bullets are leaving
here fine. The trouble must be on the other end."

"Well," the phone man said, writhing in pain, "the bullets are leaving here fine. The trouble must be on the other end."

ROTFLMAO! The typical phone man response.
