A Canadian logging company needed to hire another lumberjack, the first guy to apply was a little skinny fellow, who was laughed at by the manager and told to leave.
"Just give me a chance," the little guy pleaded.
" Okay," the manager replied, " Grab your axe and cut down that cedar over there,"
Two minutes later he was back at the managers office, " Trees cut, do I get the job?"
" I don't believe it, that is so much faster than even my best lumberjack could have done it, where did you learn to use an axe like that ?" the manager inquired.
" Sahara Forest," the little guy replied.
" Don't you mean the Sahara Desert," the manager corrected him.
" Sure that's what they call it now."
