Beware of Italian Safes...
The other day we sent on of our best safe technicians out to work on a safe. The customer said it was an Italian safe and had the combination and the original paperwork. After 4 hours on the job the locksmith gave up. When we asked him what the problem was he said he couldn't figure out the combination. We told him the customer had the combination. The locksmith knew that but claimed he couldn't count in Italian!!
MY FRIEND'S father is a locksmith in a resort town. Once he saw a group of beach goers park near his shop and dump trash from their car on his property. As soon as they were out of sight, the locksmith picked the lock on their car door, put the garbage back inside and relocked the car.

Did you hear about the locksmith who was pulled over for speeding on the way to a job? The cop got out of his car and the locksmith rolled down his window. "I've been waiting for someone like you all day," the cop said. The locksmith replied, "Yeah, well I got here as fast as I could." When the cop finally stopped laughing, he sent the guy on his way without a ticket.
