“Couldn’t believe dad stole from his road worker job. But when I got home, all the signs were there”

“I never wanted to believe that my dad stole from his job as a road worker, but when I got home all the signs were there” is a joke that was posted on Twitter on August 31, 2011. The joke has been printed on many images.
   
“I didn’t think my son stole from his trigonometry teacher until I saw his room. All the sines were there” is another version of the joke.
