A man hires a blonde to paint stripes down a road,
But she has to keep the contract and do at least four miles each day.
The first day, the blonde does 8 miles.
The boss is extremely impressed.
The second day the blonde does 4 miles.
The boss is somewhat impressed, but not as much as before.
The third day, the blonde does two miles.
The boss thinks she is just having a bad day,
so he still lets her keep the job.
The fourth day, the blonde only does 1 mile. The boss asks,
“You were doing so well before. Why aren’t you doing well now?!”
The blonde replies,
“I can’t get far because each day I’m getting further and further away from the bucket.”
