A Factory Worker, a Pilot and a Preacher
Standing in line at the pearly gates are a blue collar factory worker, a pilot, and a preacher. As the factory worker steps up to the gate St. Peter hands him a cotton robe and wooden staff and says "Welcome, go enjoy yourself". As the pilot steps up St. Peter hands him a fine silk robe and golden staff and says "Welcome, go enjoy yourself". Then the preacher steps up and St. Peter hands him a silk robe and silver staff and the preacher proclaims "Wait, you mean the pilot gets a gold staff and I don't?!" St. Peter looks at him and says "Well, up here we go by the numbers and when you preached people slept, but when he flew, people prayed; Now go enjoy yourself".
