Old Guys Rule: One day, in Russia...

Putin is visiting a big factory for a photo op, and he decides to get the opinions of the common man. He walks up to one of the line workers and says, "My friend, I hear alcoholism is a big problem in Russia. Tell me, do you think you could still do your job if you drank a bottle of vodka in the morning?"

The worker thinks and says, "Well... I suppose so."

Putin frowns because that wasn't the answer he was expecting, but presses on: "Do you think you could still do your job if you'd had two bottles of vodka in the morning?"

The worker nods and says he probably could.

Putin, now becoming exasperated, asks: "What if you'd had three bottles?"

The worker replies, "I'm here, aren't I?"
