A county road crew got their work assignment one morning to go patch some potholes.
They arrived at the assigned location and when they went to get their stuff out of the back of the pickup they realized they had a problem. The team leader got on the radio and called the supervisor and said “boss, we got out here but there ain’t no shovels in the truck”.
The supervisor replied “dang it all, that other crew must not have put them back when they finished yesterday. Just sit tight and I’ll bring some out to you”.
The crew foreman then asked “what are we supposed to do until you get here?”
The road superintendent replied “I guess you’ll just have to lean on each other until I can get you some shovels”.
