Lumberjack

A young man came up to the owner of a lumberjack business and said, “I need a job, and I think I’m pretty good.”
The owner replied, “Okay, show me what you can do. Chop down that redwood over there.”
The young man accepted the challenge and left. Five minutes later, he came back and announced that he was done.
The owner looked over toward where the tree was, and shocked, he asked, “How did you chop that tree down so fast?”
The man said, “I got a lot of practice in the Sahara.”
The owner replied, “You mean the Sahara desert?”
“Yes,” he said, “or at least that’s what they call it now.”
