There was once an Irishman named Paddy and he got work in England. He was a very lazy fellow and he did not like to work. Whenever he got the chance he sat down and smoked. Paddy's employer was a man named Dodging and Paddy did not know him. Paddy was smoking one day and he saw a man walking along a nearby path. He told him to come over and have a smoke. The man turned round and said "Oh no not stall I am Dodging the manager." "So am I said Paddy"
