> Last week I had a

> down lately at work, 
> so I thought I would share my dilemma with you to
> make you realize it's 
> not so bad after all. Before I can tell you what
> happened to me, I 
> first must bore you with a few technicalities of my
> job.

> As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the
> sea. I wear a suit to the office. It's 
> a wetsuit. This time of year the water is quite
> cool. So what we do to 
> keep warm is this: We have a diesel powered
> industrial water heater. 
> This $20,000 piece of equipment sucks the water out
> of the sea. It 
> heats it to a delightful temperature. It then pumps
> it down to the diver 
> through a garden hose, which is taped to the air
> hose. Now this sounds 
> like a darn good plan, and I've used it several
> times with no 
> complaints. What I do, when I get to the bottom and
> start working, is 
> take the hose and stuff it down the back of my
> wetsuit. This floods my 
> whole suit with warm water. It's like working in a
> Jacuzzi. 
> 
> Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my
> butt started to itch. So, of 
> course, I scratched it. This only made things worse.
> Within a few 
> seconds my rear started to burn. I pulled the hose
> out from my back, 
> but the damage was done. In agony I realized what
> had happened. The hot 
> water machine had sucked up a jellyfish and pumped
> it into my suit. 
> 
> Now, since I don't have any hair on my back, the
> jellyfish couldn't stick to 
> it. However, the crack of my butt was not as
> fortunate. When I 
> scratched what I thought was an itch, I was actually
> grinding the jellyfish into 
> the crack of my butt. I informed the dive supervisor
> of my dilemma over 
> the communicator. His instructions were unclear due
> to the fact that 
> he, along with five other divers, were all laughing
> hysterically. 
> 
> Needless to say I aborted the dive. I was instructed
> to make three agonizing 
> in-water decompression stops totaling thirty-five
> minutes before I 
> could reach the surface to begin my chamber dry
> decompression. When I arrived 
> at the surface, I was wearing nothing but my brass
> helmet. As I climbed 
> out of the water, the medic, with tears of laughter
> running down his 
> face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to rub
> it on my butt as 
> soon as I got in the chamber. The cream put the fire
> out, but I couldn't 
> poop for two days because my butt was swollen shut. 
> 
> So, next time you're having a bad day at work, think
> about how much worse it would be if you had a
> jellyfish shoved up your butt. Now repeat to
> yourself, "I love my 
> job, I love my job, I love my job ".
