Diet water

Due to the increased occurrence of obesity on seismic crews the HSE departments of the major seismic companies have decided to take the initiative and combat the problem.

A HSE spokesman from a major company told us "The new water has only one tenth of the calories of the brand that we had been providing which makes it easy to justify the 200% increase in price."

He added that the company would not be placing this burden on its shareholders as the costs were going to be taken from another source.

A senior manager at one of the seismic companies explained "Rather than giving the field crews the usual annually adjusted increase in salary this year we have decided to give them the benefit of this healthier alternative." he told us.

"They will thank us in the long run." he added.
