Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 The Half-WitThe man owned a small farm in Indiana.The Indiana State Wage & Hour Department claimed he was notpaying 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 farmer, "there's my farm hand who's beenwith me for 3 years. I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board.The cook has been here for 18 months, and I pay her $150 perweek plus free room and board.Then there's the half-wit who works about 18 hours every day anddoes about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about $10 perweek, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of bourbonevery Saturday night. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.""That's the guy I want to talk to --- the half-wit," says theagent."That would be me," replied the farmer.
