Farmer's Joke


A man owned a small farm in Iowa. The Iowa Wage and Hour Department claimed
he was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to
interview him. "I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them,"
demanded the agent.


"Well, there are my hired hands: One has been with me for four years; the
other for three. I pay them each $600 a week, plus free room and board. The
cook has been here for 18 months, and I pay her $500 a month plus free room
and board.

Then there's the half-wit that works here about 18 hours a day. He takes
home $10 a week and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every week," replied the
farmer.

"That's the guy I want to talk to; the half-wit," said the agent.

The farmer said, "That would be me."
