Lousy Weather

Although he was a qualified meteorologist, Jasper Ryan ran up a terrible record of forecasting for the TV news. He became something of a local joke when a newspaper began keeping a record of his predictions and showed that he'd been wrong almost three hundred times in a single year.

That kind of notoriety was enough to get him fired.

He moved to another part of the country and applied for a similar job.

One blank on the job application called for the reason for leaving his previous position. Jasper wrote: "The climate didn't agree with me."
