Topic: Work & Pensions

[rhos1355]

An elderly farmer received a letter from the Department of Work & Pensions stating that they beleived he was not paying his staff the correct wages. In order to investigate this they would be sending out an inspector to interview the farmer's employees.
On the appointed day the inspector arrived and said to the farmer:
"Tell me about you employees."
"Well, we have a farm hand who receives £240 a week and the rent-free use of the cottage, then we have the dairymaid who gets  £190 a week plus board and lodging. Then there's the half-wit............... he works 16 hours a day, seven days a week and does 90% of the work around here for £25 a week and a bottle of gin with it. Occasionally he gets to sleep with my wife."
"Aaah" said the pompous little inspector, " I'd like to speak to the half-wit first."
"That'll be me." replied the farmer.

Then there's the half-wit............... he works 16 hours a day, seven days a week and does 90% of the work around here for £25 a week and a bottle of gin with it. Occasionally he gets to sleep with my wife."

You just succinctly described my home life.   But replace the bottle of gin with a case of PBR.





P.S.  I'm not complaining at all, I'm positive I got the good end of the deal.  My wife has to do something every day that I could never possibly do...  Put up with me!!
