So...dey vent to der Unemployment Office togedder.
Asked his occupation, Ole said, "Panty Stitcher. I sew da elastic onto da ladies cotton panties."
The clerk looked up Panty Stitcher. Finding it classified as unskilled labor, she gave Ole $300
a week in unemployment compensation.

When Ole found this out, he was yus furious! He stormed back into the office to find out why his
