A man owned a small farm in Saskatchewan .
The Saskatchewan Wage & Hour Department 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 farmer, 'first, there's my farm hand who's been with
me for 3 years. I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board.
Next comes the cook. She 's been here for 18 months, and I pay her $150
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.
He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.'
'That's the guy I want to talk to -- the half-wit,' says the agent.
'That would be me,' replied the farmer.
