An Irishman, a Mexican and a redneck were doing construction
work on the scaffolding of a tall building.  They were
eating lunch and the Irishman said, "Corned beef and
cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for
lunch, I'm going to jump off this building."

The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, "Burritos
again! If I get burritos one more time, I'm going to jump
off too."

The redneck opened his lunch and said, "Bologna again.  If I
get a bologna sandwich one more time, I'm jumping too."

Next day the Irishman opens his lunch box, sees corned beef
and cabbage and jumps to his death.  The Mexican opens his
lunch, sees a burrito and jumps too.  The redneck opens his
lunch, sees the bologna and jumps to his death as well.

At the funeral, the Irishman's wife is weeping.  She says,
"If I'd known how really tired he was of corned beef and
cabbage, I never would have given it to him again!"

The Mexican's wife also weeps and says, "I could have given
him tacos or enchiladas!  I didn't realize he hated burritos
so much."

Everyone turned and stared at the redneck's wife.  "Hey,
don't look at me," she said.  "He makes his own lunch."
