An Irishman and an Englishman park their cars side by side
in a pub parking lot. The Irishman has a clapped-out 1954 
Morris 1000; the Englishman, a new Rolls-Royce.

Irishman:

        have there, soar! If you please...what does a man have 
        to do to get a motor car like that?

        I woahk foah Cunard.
Irishman:
