Humorous Feedback

Why we don't weigh aircraft every time we take off.

Scene butchers shop (Remember them?).

Mrs Chaffcutter says. "I 'll have 5 kilo of lean rump plese." (Thats 11.23 Lbs )

Burcher Bill says. "Lets see. An average standard kilogram of rump is 900 grams, so........five kilos would be.........4,5 Kilos, right?"

"I guess." Says Mrs Chaffcutter. "But why dont you just use scales and weight the meat?"

You can't trust them scales Mrs C. The government doesn't, they give us average (Standard) weight tables to use instead."

"OIC" says the trusting Mrs Chaffcutter.
