A man owned a small ranch in Montana. The Montana Workforce Department received a complaint that he wasn’t paying his workers proper wages, so they sent an agent to investigate.
“I need a list of your employees and their wages,” the agent demanded.
“Well,” the rancher replied, “I have my farmhand who’s been with me for three years. I pay him $200 a week, plus room and board.”
“The cook has been here for 18 months. I pay her $150 a week, also with room and board.”
“And then there’s the half-wit,” the rancher continued. “He works about 18 hours a day, doing 90% of the work around here. He earns about $10 a week, pays for his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night.”
“Now, that’s the guy I want to talk to… the half-wit,” said the agent.
“That would be me,” the rancher replied.
LOL!
Hope this joke made you smile! Have a great day!
A Retiring Farmer Sells His Animals
A retiring farmer needed to clear out his animals and was selling them off. He went door-to-door in his town, offering either a horse or a chicken to each household.
He continued down the street, giving a horse to the households where the man was the boss and a chicken where the woman was the boss.
To determine who was in charge in each household, the farmer had a unique tactic.
When he arrived at a house with a couple tending their garden, he approached them and asked, “Who’s the boss here?”
The man immediately said, “I am.”
The farmer then asked the man, “I have a black horse and a brown one. Which would you like?”
After thinking for a moment, the man said, “I’ll take the black one.”
But before the farmer could respond, the wife cut in, “No, no, no! Get the brown one,” urging her husband to choose the other horse.
Hearing this, the farmer quickly handed the wife a chicken and walked off.
That was a clever move on the farmer’s part—he certainly knew who the real boss was!
