Now check the gap between cultures. Mining anecdote.
Miners Are on medical examination.
One comes to the office of the doctor, and he had bruises all shoulder. The doctor asks:
"Dude, what happened to your shoulder?
"I am the deliveryman work, here on the shoulder all the drag, then Jack, then rack..."
Comes next miner, on his both shoulders huge bruises. The doctor asks:
- Man, and what was with your shoulders?
"You see, I in mine miner work. Take on one shoulder Jack, on another rack..."
The doctor called the next, the third guy comes, he's got a bruise in the entire breast. The doctor asks:
"And what is your profession?
Guy hits himself in the chest:
- I'm a mechanic!!! I kept all mine!!!!!

I've been a miner my entire adult life......and I ain't got a clue what he's talking about.

Vashper, I swear to God, if you turn out to be from Moscow, Idaho and are just screwing with us, you're going down!

And what they say on the same dialect? That's interesting.

Generally miner jokes come from the Donets Basin. There's a very good coal, but very difficult conditions of occurrence - thin steeply dipping strata. To work there is difficult and dangerous. Miners ironically refer to those employees who do not work continuously and directly into the mine - to the technician, engineer safety, etc. service personnel. So this anecdote - it is customary banter between the different categories of employees of one company.

Make another attempt.
Сomputer specialist сame to the mine, on a business trip for a few days to install new software in accounting, or something similar. Such egghead nerd, very far from the coal industry. And he complained that the hotel has a problem with the hot water in the shower. "So come with us to the baths, we have a good bath with sauna."
And when they undress in the locker room and a group of black men pass them.
"Oh, do afroamericans work here? And why do they all have black penises, and one - white?"
"There are not afroamericans, they are miners, they just look so after a change in the mine. And the last miner has a mistress here in the building."

And yes, Kensco, why are you so angry?
