>> A road crew supervisor hired a nice-looking blonde woman to assist with
>> painting the yellow line down the middle of the road. He was skeptical about
>> hiring her, but she appeared enthusiastic and told him that she really
>> needed the job. He explained to her that her work day would be to complete 2
>> miles of line on her road, and he set her up with her brushes and paint and
>> got her started.
>> After the first day, he was pleased to find that she did an excellent job
>> and was able to paint 4 miles of road in her 8 hour shift. He told her that
>> she did an excellent job and how pleased he was with her progress.
>> On the second day, she completed painting 2 miles of road. Her supervisor
>> was surprised that on day one she had completed twice as much work, but did
>> not say anything, as 2 miles of road was the amount that the job required
>> anyway. He decided to just accept it, and to look forward to the next day
>> when he was sure she would pick up her speed again.
>> On day 3 he was shocked to learn that in her 8 hour shift, she only
>> completed painting 1 mile of road. He called her into his office and asked her
>> what was the problem, "On your first day, you completed 4 miles of road, on
>> your second day, 2 miles of road, and now on day 3, you were only able to
>> complete 1 mile of road." "Can I ask you, what is the problem?"
>> "Well, she replied, I keep getting farther and farther from the paint can."
