Fwd: FW: Texas Rancher:

Texas Rancher

A man owned a small ranch near San Antonio.

The Texas Labor Department got a tip that he was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an investigator out to interview him.

"I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them," demanded the investigator.

"Well," replied the rancher, "there's my ranch hand who's been with me for three years.

I pay him $1200 a week plus free room and board.

"The cook has been here for 18 months, and I pay her $1000 per week plus free room and board.

"Then there's the half-wit.

He 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.

But, I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night, and he also sleeps with my wife occasionally."

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

"That would be me," replied the rancher.
