A Couple Irish Jokes
Three Irishmen, Paddy, Sean and Seamus, were stumbling home from the pub late one night and found themselves on the road which led past the old graveyard.
‘Come have a look over here, ’says Paddy, ‘It’s Michael O’ Grady’s grave, God bless his soul. He lived to the ripe old age of 87.’
‘That’s nothing, ’says Sean, ‘here’s one named Patrick O’ Toole, it says here that he was 95 when he died.’
Just then, Seamus yells out, ‘Good God, here’s a fella that got to be 145!’
‘What was his name?’ asks Paddy.
Seamus stumbles around a bit, awkwardly lights a match to see what else is written on the stone marker and exclaims: ‘Miles, from Dublin.’

Irish Job Application:
Murphy applied for a fermentation operator post at a famous Irish firm based in Dublin. An American applied for the same job and since both applicants had similar qualifications, they were asked to take a test by the Manager. When the results were in, amazingly, both men had only one wrong answer.
The manager went to Murphy and said, ‘Thank you for coming to the interview, but We’ve decided to give the American the job.’
Murphy, ‘And why would you be doing that? We both got 19 questions correct. This being Ireland and me being Irish surely I should get the job.’
Manager, ‘We have made our decision not on the correct answers, but on the question you missed.’
Murphy, ‘And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?’
Manager, ‘Simple. On question number 7 the American wrote down, ‘I don’t know.’
You put down, ‘Neither do I.’
