Title: sad but true.
Post by: Mick_J on Thursday, 24 January 2019, 10:09 PM
A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realises he is lost, he reduces height and spots a man below.  He lowers the balloon further and shouts: "you there! I promised my friend I'd meet him 30 minutes ago, but I'm lost.  Where am I?"

The man below says "you are in a hot air balloon, hovering approximately 20 feet above the ground level at 52 degrees and 30 seconds North and 01 degrees and 25 minutes west."

"You must be an engineer." Shouts the balloonist.

"I am, how did you know?" Says the man.

"Well, everything you have told me is probably technically perfect, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I am still lost." Shouts the balloonist.

"You must be a Royal Air Force officer." Says the man.

"I am how did you guess?" Shouts the balloonist.

"Well firstly you are speaking down to me without knowing who I am.  Secondly you occupy an elevated position totally unbefitting you grasp of the situation, and thirdly you don't know where you are going.  Next, you have made a promise and have no idea how to keep it, then you expect me to solve your problem.  The fact is, you are in exactly the same position as you were in before we met, but somehow it's my fault.  Lastly, you are incapable of saying excuse me, please or thank you."

A rehash of the farmer and politician joke.
