Handyman’s job

Handyman’s job
A woman wanting to earn some money decided to hire herself out as a handyman and started convassing in a wealthy neighborhood. She went to the house of a wealthy man and asked the owner if he had any jobs for her to do. “ Well, you can paint my porch. How much will you charge ?” The woman said, “ How about fifty dollars ?” The wealthy man agreed and told her that the paint and ladder that she might need were in the garage. A short time later, the woman came to the door to collect her money.

“ You’re finished already ? ” he asked.

“ Yes,” she answered, “ and since I had some paint left over, I gave it two coats.” Impressed, the man reached into his wallet for the fifty dollars.

“ And by the way,” she added, “ that’s not a Porch, it’s a Mercedes !”
