Three guys were working on a cell tower — Alan, Tremaine and Tito. As they start their descent, Alan slips, falls off the tower, and is killed instantly. As the ambulance takes the body away, Tremaine says, "Someone should go and tell his wife."

Tito says, "OK, I'm pretty good at that sensitive stuff. I'll do it."

Two hours later, Tito comes back carrying a case of beer. Tremaine says, "Where did you get that beer, Tito?"

"Alan's wife gave it to me," says Tito.

"That's unbelievable!" exclaims Tremaine. "You told the lady her husband was dead, and she gave you beer?!"

"Well, not exactly", Tito says. "When she answered the door, I said to her: 'You must be Alan's widow.'"

She said, "You must be mistaken. I'm not a widow."

Then I said, "I'll bet you a case of beer you are."
