Work for the Dole

The Ferrari F1 Team fired their entire pit-crew yesterday.
The announcement was followed by Ferrari's decision to take advantage of
the
English Government's "Work For the Dole" scheme and hire unemployed youths
from Liverpool.

The decision to hire them was brought on by a recent documentary on how
unemployed youths in Liverpool were able to remove a set of car wheels in
less than 6 seconds without proper equipment, whereas Ferrari's existing
crew can only do it in 8 seconds.

This was thought to be an excellent yet bold move by Ferrari Management, as
most races are won & lost in the pits, Ferrari would have an advantage over
every team.

However Ferrari expectations were easily exceeded, as during the Crews
first practice session; not only were "da boyz from Bootle" able to change
the tyres in under 6 seconds but within 12 seconds they had resprayed,
rebadged,
and had sold the vehicle over to the McLaren Team for four dozen Stella's .
