- Two construction workers are having lunch on a park bench when they notice an attractive lady doing stretches on the other side of the park. They begin catcalling and shouting for her attention. Finally she stops to look up at them. The two workers then start gesturing toward the lady and indicating for her to lift up her shirt to show them her breasts. Nervously, she looks around to make sure nobody is watching. Nobody is, so she slowly lifts up her shirt, and the men whistle loudly again out of excitement. The lady unexpectedly slips her shirt over her head and the two workers get even more excited and begin shouting for her to strip off the rest of her clothes. After another nervous glance around the park, the lady slowly begins to strip the rest of her clothing. When she is fully naked, she begins to make her way across the park toward the workers, who stand nervously still, watching her approach and staring at her naked body. She finally makes it over to them, places a hand each on both of their chests, and seductively whispers, “Your turn boys. I wanna see your nuts. Which one of you wants to show me first?” The workers glance at one another, looking nervous and slightly confused. One of them finally volunteers. Suddenly, he begins waving his arms in the air, running around in circles and yelling “WHEEEEEEE!” The other worker laughs. “That’s not what she meant, you idiot!” The lady giggles. “Show him what I mean. Show me your nuts.” The other worker winks and nods in understanding. Then he slowly reaches into his pocket and pulls out a handful of bolts and screws.
- There once was a roofer who was known for being a busybody. He always did such a terrible job that people were beginning to wonder why he was still not fired.

- Dogs should have construction jobs. They are very good at roofing.
- A construction worker walked into a bar. “Good evening,” said the bartender. “You look like you had a rough day at work.” The worker nodded. “It was unusually rough today.” The bartender, looking sympathetic, nodded back and asked, “You want the usual tonight?” The construction worker thought for a moment. “No,” she said after a moment, “I’m off work tomorrow, and I have someone on the way here to pick me up. I think I’ll order a stiff drink.” The bartender took down the order and walked away. About five minutes later, she came back and handed the worker a large glass of cement.
- I once had a construction job. I quit after less than a year because I just couldn’t handle it like I originally thought. I told my best friend about it. “I couldn’t take it,” I told him. “I wasn’t physically or mentally strong enough.” My friend was very supportive. “That’s completely understandable,” he said. “You did what you needed to do. But did you just walk away, or did you hand over a too weak notice?”
- There once was a construction worker who had an accident on the job. He got dirt in his eye and became blind. He was advised to stay home and heal for a while with the promise that he could come back to work when he learned to work around his blindness. His best friend also began doing little tests with him every day. His friend would encourage him to walk around for a few minutes, pick things up and determine what they were. He received a call from his friend at the end of every day to recap things that he picked up and guessed correctly, and if any of his eyesight had happened to come back. One day he got a call from his friend at the end of the day, which he answered with excitement. “Hey guess what?” He told his buddy, “Today I picked up a hammer and saw!”
