Thanks to my friend Mike Flynn for sending this little joke along.
There was an old funeral director who owned a small funeral home in Montana. The Montana 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 funeral director , "There's my apprentice who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $600 a week plus free room and board."
"The embalmer 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 funeral director.
