#10006 Wings Over The Mountains of Life



The American Farmer and Business Owner
===========================

A man owned a small farm in Alabama. The Alabama Wage and Hour
Dept. 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 rancher, "There's my ranch 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 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."

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

"That would be me," replied the farmer.
