Parlez-vous Francais?
One hot day,two roadworkers are laying asphalt on a back country road when a United Nations limousine pulls up next to them,and an official-looking man gets out.
He looks at both men and asks, “Parlez-vous francais?”
The two men just look at him confused.
He then asks, “Usted habla espanol?”
Again,they just stare at him.
“Sprechen Sie deutsch?”, he asks.
No answer.
“Parlate italiano?”
Still, no reply.
Disgusted,the man gets back into the limo,and it quickly drives away. One worker then says to the other, “You know, we really should learn another language.”
The other worker replies, “What for? That guy knew four languages and it didn’t do him any good!”
