A man owned a small farm in the midlands.
The local authorities got wind that he was not paying proper wages to his staff 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, "there's my farm hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him £200 a week plus free room and board. Then there's the cook, she's has been here for 18 months, and I pay her £150 per week plus free room and board.
Oh yes - 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 for his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of whiskey every Saturday night, oh and he also sleeps with my wife occasionally."
"That's the person I want to talk to --- the half-wit," says the agent.
"That would be me," replied the farmer.
