"A Critical Shortage Of Typists" joke

A soldier was asked to report to the headquarters sergeant for an assignment.
The sergeant said, “We have a critical shortage of typists. I'll give you a
little test. Type this, ” he ordered, giving him a pamphlet to copy and a sheet of paper, and pointing to a desk across the room that held a typewriter and an adding machine.
The man, quite reluctant to become a clerk typist, made a point of typing very slowly, and saw to it that his work contained as many errors as possible.
The sergeant gave the typed copy only a brief glance. “That's fine, ”" he said. “Report for work at 8 tomorrow. ”
“But aren't you going to check the test? ” the prospective clerk asked.
The sergeant grinned. “You passed the test, ” he replied, “when you sat down at the typewriter instead of at the adding machine. ”
