The government suspected the charter boat owner was not paying his employees properly so they sent an auditor to investigate.
Auditor: “I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them.”
Boat Owner: “Well, there’s Clarence, my deckhand. He’s been with me three years. I pay him $1,000 a week plus free room and board. Then there’s the mentally challenged guy. He works about 80 hours a week and does 90% of the work around here. He makes about $10 a week, pays his own room and board and I buy him a bottle of Bacardi rum and a dozen Budweiser’s every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also gets to sleep with my wife occasionally.”
Auditor: “That’s the guy I want to talk to. The mentally challenged one.”
Boat Owner: “That would be me. What would you like to know?
