A clerk who had to work overtime every day used to get back to his room very late at night and sometimes in the early hours of the morning. He was so tired when he got back that he would sit down on the edge of the bed, take off his shoes, and throw them on the floor. He would then get into bed and fall fast asleep.

But the lodger who had the room under the clerk's was woken up each night by the two thuds that the two shoes made as they landed on the ceiling. Finally, he could stand it no longer and complained to the clerk.

The clerk promised that in future after taking off his shoes, he would put them down as quietly as possible on the floor.

The next day, he got back from his office at about one o'clock in the morning.As usual, he took off one shoe and threw it on the floor. He was about to do the same with the other shoe when he suddenly remembered the promise he had made. So with great care he put the second shoe silently on the floor.Then he got into bed and fell fast asleep.An hour later,he was woken up by a violent knocking on his door. It was the lodger who lived in the roomjust under his.

"Please, please drop the other shoe. " The lodger pleased."I've been waiting for a whole hour for u to drop it. As soon as u do so, I can go to sleep."
