The Federal Department of Labor offices claimed a small Texas farmer was not paying proper wages to his hired help and sent an agent out to investigate him.
The conversation they had follows
Federal agent: I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them.
Farmer: Well, there's my farm hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board and furnish him a pickup to drive and he charges all his fuel to me. Then there's the mentally challenged worker. He works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of whis- key every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.
Federal agent: That's the guy I want to talk to...the mentally challenged one.
Farmer: That would be me
