The garbageman was visiting the local museum on his day off when he needed to use the washroom. The men’s room was locked so he snuck into the ladies room after seeing no one was in there. He found an expensive looking woman’s hat on the counter, and since no one was around, he decided to steal it. Having recovered many antique hats from his job collecting garbage, that people threw out, he knew it was worth good money on ebay.

On his way out, a security guard saw him coming out of the woman’s washroom and asked him what he was doing there. The garbageman lied with a straight face.  “My mother forgot her hat in there and she is already in the car, so I came back to get it. She is old and can’t walk that well.”

The guard eyed him suspiciously.
