[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 101116, member: 1246"] [FONT=arial,helvetica][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]THE HALF WIT A man owned a small ranch in New Mexico. The New Mexico Wage &Hour Dept 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" replied the rancher, "There's my ranch hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $600 a week plus free room and board. The cook has been here for 18 months, and I pay her $500 per week plus free room and board. Then there's the half-wit who works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night." "That's the guy I want to talk to, the half-wit," says the agent. "That would be me," replied the rancher. [/SIZE][/FONT][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
