Title: Wage and Hour
Post by: Krusher on June 23, 2004, 07:27:34 PM

A man owned a small ranch in west Texas. The Wage and Hour Department of Texas claimed he was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent to interview him. "I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them," demanded the agent.

"Well, there's my hired hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $600 a week plus free room and board. The cook has been here for 18 months, and I pay her $500 a month plus free room and board. Then there's the half-wit that works about 18 hours a day. He makes $10 a week and I buy him chewing tobacco," replied the rancher.

    "That's the guy I want to talk to; the half-wit," said the agent.

    "The rancher said, "That would be me."

So true man.  Unpopular in these anti-business times, but so so true.
