A lady is walking down the street when she sees two men with a tall pole. One of the men is bracing the pole straight up and the other man is climbing up the pole with a tape measure. He almost gets the tape hooked on the top of the pole when the whole thing collapses.

Now they switch, and the holder is climbing with the tape measure and the other is holding the pole, Again, the whole thing collapses.

“Why don’t you lay the pole on the ground and measure it?” The lady asks.

The men say, “We want the height, not the length.”
