 |
The Montana Department of Employment, Division of Labor Standards, claimed a small rancher was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to investigate him.
STATE GOV’T AGENT: “I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them.”
RANCHER: ”Well, there’s my hired hand who’s been with me for 3 years. I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board.
Then there’s the mentally challenged guy. He 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 so he can cope with life. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.”
STATE GOV’T AGENT: “That’s the guy I’d like to talk to - the mentally challenged one.”
RANCHER: “That would be me.”

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Sometimes humor can put it right in there for a strike.

You guys have the wrong mirrors!
I looked in my mirror and there was this old guy looking back!
I replaced it with a picture of my wife and feel better without that darned old mirror.
