Boudreaux and Thibodeaux were sitting in Pierre's Bar across from the boat launch - an east wind is no good for fishing, but it's just fine for beer drinking.
Thibodeaux asked, "Boudreaux, do ya 'member back inna '80's, when we worked downa refinery?"
Boudreaux replied, "Yeah, dem was good times. I work in da maint'nance, an' you work da secur'ty. I made a lotta money dere."
Thibodeaux continued, "Dem was good times fer sure. But Boudreaux I gotta ax ya sometin. Ever day we was dere, jus before quittin time, you pushed a wheelbarrow full a trash out da gate and to da dump. Ever day I checked it out, you had pieces a' wood, hunks a' rusted iron, pieces a' wire, empty paint cans, dried-out paint brushes, busted lights, all kinda stuff - but nothin worth stealin.
"Now, I know ya Boudreaux, I know ya was stealin sometin. What was it?"
Boudreaux chuckled and said, "Wheelbarrows"
My accounting prof said that was happening for real at Avondale shipyard when he started keeping the books there.
I guess he's just a liar.
Or that story of his eventually morphed into a coonass joke.
