This just keeps getting funnier....

I am a construction inspector for the government.  Most of my day is hanging around a construction site (we are replacing a bridge on the highway near DerekMac's place right now) and "monitor the government's interests" which means I don't do much.

I told the guys on site about my death on Friday  and they didn't take it very seriously.

Then, this morning, unbeknownst to me, they sent another inspector to this site.  This isn't a big deal, as inspectors get moved around or stuck places they aren't needed because, well, they have to pay us anyway, might as well put us somewhere.

I didn't know the other inspector was coming, but she got here significantly earlier than I did, which really freaked the guys out because I told them I was going to die on Friday and there was someone else here to do my job Monday morning!   :ahhh

When I finally showed up they were all looking at me funny  and then we all started laughing- all except the other inspector, who couldn't figure out why me not being dead was so funny!

Great to see you Tom!

I've been wondering how you were doing!  Sorry for the concern I caused!  It really did start as a joke!

Salah from Raiders of the Lost Ark comes to mind, with a quote I've more or less recalled all these years:

"Holy smokes!...I am so pleased you are not dead!"

You and me both.  Not being dead was quite a relief!  :D
