At Work

I sat at the x-ray machine checking traveler’s belongings My co-worker beside me running the Explosive Detection Trace machine Passenger came in put his bag on the belt I checked his bag in the chamber Laptop! I shouted to my co-worker She grab the bag, “Sir is this your bag?” “Yes”, he said She opened his bag to do a search “May I have your credit card so I can check your laptop?” she said “No, no no”! He said, “I won’t pay to have my laptop swabbed, May I have my laptop back please”? “Oh! So sorry sir, I meant your boarding pass!” “Ha ha!” Said another co-worker, “You’re an ass”.
