Chaim Yankel decided to get out of Chelm for a while and go to the City for lunch in a restaurant. He sits down and orders a carton of orange juice. The waiter complies and brings Chaim Yankel a whole carton of orange juice and lays it out in front of him. And Chaim Yankel just stares at it. For hours.
Each time the waiter approaches Chaim Yankel to see if he needs anything Chaim Yankel just shushes him.
Finally, the restaurant is about to close and the waiter says, "Excuse me sir, we are about to close for the evening. I'm afraid you’re going to have to leave."
"Shh!" Chaim Yankel shushes the waiter again.
“Why do you keep shushing me?” asks the waiter angrily.
“I’m trying to concentrate,” answers Chaim Yankel.
“Why?” asks the waiter.
"Well the carton says so.”
