Job Interview

Three men, an Italian, a French and a Portuguese went for a job interview in England. Before the interview, they were told that they must compose a sentence in English with three main words: "green", "pink" and "yellow".

The Italian was first:

"I wake up in the morning. I see the yellow sun. I see the green grass and I think to myself, I hope it will be a pink day."

The French was next:

I wake up in the morning, I eat a yellow banana, a green pepper and in the evening I watch the pink panther on TV."

Last was the Portuguese:

"I wake up in the morning, I hear the phone green...green...", I pink up the phone and I say "Yellow?"...
