Man come to house to do odd-jobs. Woman give him a list of 10 things needed to be done.
She comes back in evening and only half the stuff is fixed.
He says "I did 1,3,5,7 and 9"

Gotta love a pragmatic guy.
Good one, Kandisbar !

Ever since I was a kid, I have always wondered who does the even jobs, plenty of folks who do the odd ones.

I have also wondered..... just who's making the call ? ......this job is normal, that job is normal, this one's normal.....wait a minute ! that's kinda of an odd job, isn't it ?

I acknowledge your thanks, Dakoda, but I can only pass it on, posthumously,..... to my parents and maternal grandparents.

Dad was a Methodist minister and Mom was a graduate of a prominent Secretarial School. My grandparents were both English teachers, and my grandmother gave me a "Word of the Day" calendar for Christmas, beginning when I was 6.
My pragmatic use of the English language has both been a boon and occasionally, a curse. Correcting a classmate is somewhat acceptable, correcting a teacher or professor or boss..... not so much !
Smart *ss or precocious.....I have worn the mantle of each somewhat proudly, but as I aged, I learned to hold my tongue in a lot of cases. Being "correct" does not always ingratiate one's self to the one being "corrected", nor those observing said "correction".......still working on that !
As my Grandmother always said...."if you realize that you have faults, then there's hope for you !"
