Running a business in today’s world.

A man owned a small farm in Ontario.  HRDC 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 farmer, “there’s my farm hand who’s been with me for
3 years.  I pay him $400.00 a week plus free room and board.  The cook
has been here for 18 months, and I pay her $300.00 per week plus free
room and board.  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
$10.00 per week, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle
of Bourbon every Saturday night.  He also sleeps with my wife
occasionally.”

“That’s the guy I want to talk to…..the half-wit”, says the Agent.

“That would be me”, replied the farmer.
