A young blonde girl in her late teens, wanting to earn some extra money for
The summer, decided to hire herself out as a
"handy woman" and started canvassing a nearby well-to-do neighbourhood. She
Asked the owner of the first house if he had any work for her.
"Well, I guess I could use somebody to paint the porch," he said. "How
Much will you charge me?"
Delighted, the girl quickly responded, "How about $50?"
The man agreed and told her that the paint and brushes and everything she
Would need were in the garage.
The man's wife, hearing the conversation, said to her husband, "Does she
Realize that our porch goes ALL the way around the house?"
"That's a bit cynical, isn't it?" he responded.
The wife replied, "You're right. I guess I'm starting to believe all those
Dumb blonde jokes."
A few hours later the blonde came to the door to collect her money.
"You're finished already?" the startled husband asked.
"Yes," the blonde replied, "and I even had paint left over so I gave it two
Coats."
Impressed, the man reached into his pocket for the $50 and handed it to her
Along with a $10 tip.
"Thank you," the blonde said, "And, by the way, it's not a Porch, it's a
Lexus."
