Dialog la Orificiul pentru Plasarea Fortei de munca

– Buna ziua, vreau si eu un loc de munca.
– Avem ceva foarte bine platit, dar e mult de lucru.
– Nu, multumesc. Daca am bani, ii dau pe bautura.
– Atunci, avem un loc in care nu prea aveti de munca, dar e prost platit.
– Nu, pentru ca, daca am timp, fac rost de bani si ii dau pe bautura. Nu aveti ceva unde sa muncesc toata ziua si sa fiu prost platit ?
– Imi pare rau, pentru asta trebuie sa aveti studii superioare…

Solidaritate

Presedintele Statelor Unite ne-a cerut sa ne unim pentru o cauza comuna tuturor: combaterea terorismului. Este bine stiut ca musulmanii se opun consumului de alcool si considera vederea unei femei dezbracate (alta decat nevasta sa) drept un pacat. Din aceasta cauza lansam un apel pentru ca timp de o saptamana, ZILNIC, la ora 13.00, toate femeile sa se dezbrace complet si sa alerge prin birouri, iar toti barbatii sa le urmeze cu o bere in mana. Aceasta ne va ajuta sa detectam teroristii care se ascund la noi in firma. Statele Unite va sunt recunoscator pentru efortul facut impotriva terorismului. Colaborati!

Top 7 World Amazing Holes

Looking at photos like these scares and fascinates me in equal doses. The sheer scale of these holes reminds you of just how tiny you are.
Kimberley Big Hole – South Africa

Apparently the largest ever hand-dug excavation in the world, this 1,097 metre deep mine yielded over 3 tonnes of diamonds before being closed in 1914.

The amount of earth removed by workers is estimated to total 22.5 million tonnes.

Glory Hole – Monticello Dam
A glory hole is used when a dam is at full capacity and water needs to be drained from the resevoir.

This is the glory hole belong ing to Monticello Dam in California and it’s the largest in the world. Its size enables it to consume 14,400 cubic feet of water every second.

The hole can be seen at the top left of the photo above. If you were to jump in for some reason,
your slightly damp body would shoot out near the bottom of the dam (below).


Bingham Canyon Mine, Utah


This is supposedly the largest man-made excavation on earth. Extraction began in 1863 and still continues today, the pit increasing in size constantly. In its current state, the hole is 3/4 mile deep and 2.5 miles wide.

Great Blue Hole, Belize

Situated 60 miles off the mainland of Belize, this incredible geographical phenomenon is known as a blue hole. There are numerous blue holes around the world but none as stunning as this one.

At surface level the near perfectly circular hole is 1/4 mile wide, the depth in the middle reaching 145 metres. Obviously the hole is a huge hit with divers.

Mirny Diamond Mine, Siberia

I’m pretty sure most people have seen this one. It’s an absolute beast and holds the title of largest open diamond mine in the world. at 525 metres deep with a top diameter of 1200 metres. There’s even a no-fly zone above the hole due to a few helicopters being sucked in.

The red arrow in the photo above is pointing to a huge truck.

Diavik Mine, Canada

This incredible mine can be found 300km northeast of Yellowknife in Canada.

The mine is so huge and the area so remote that it even has its own airport with a runway large enough to accomodate a Boeing 737. It also looks equally as cool when the surrounding water is frozen.
Sinkhole, Guatemala

A sinkhole is caused when water (usually rainwater or sewage) is soaked up by the earth on a large scale, resulting in the ground collapsing.

These photos are of a sinkhole which occured early this year in Guatemala. The hole swallowed a dozen homes and killed at least 3 people.
Officials blamed the monster of a hole on a ruptured sewage pipe.
