Co-worker sent me this and I'm not sure the answer. Any guesses?


__________________________________________________________

Every day Bertha travels 30 miles in the course of her work.

She doesn't travel in a wheeled vehicle and never has problems with traffic, the police, weather, or airports.

What does she do?
 
Err Never Mind

I mentally swapped the word Drive for Travel. 😉

Hmm...The answer is obviously a pun on the word "travel", so she probably travels in a way that is not obvious to us. I would guess something along the lines of Elevator Person.

Gah, looks like ATLien247 beat me to that answer. 😉

She takes a train or trolley from place to place?

She works at home! Her computer is 30 miles away from her bed in her house 🙂

That would be one big house. It must take her half the day just to get something to eat or go to the bathroom. 😉
 
Those round things on trains... they're called wheels.... So, trains don't work.

I vote for the elevator question.

Or, maybe Bertha is a honeybee gathering honey?
Or, a horse plowing a field? 30 miles seems a bit too much for this one though...
Ferry driver? No: weather.
 
I'm liking the elevator attendent, and I actually think I heard that once.

And for the telecommuter, that could also fit.

😱 My bad. Elevator seems plausible though.
 
Could be a bunch of stuff.

Elevator operator
Olympic runner on an indoor track
It could mean her hands if she's a secretary

A honeybee would deal with weather too.
 
I vote for elevator attendent. Of course 30miles in over 158000 ft a day. that is a big building.
