Government Investigates Rancher

The Montana Department of Employment, Division of Labor Standards, claimed a small rancher was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to investigate him.

STATE GOVT AGENT: I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them.

RANCHER: Well, theres my hired hand whos been with me for 3 years.I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board.
Then theres the mentally challenged guy.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, then, buys a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.

STATE GOVT AGENT: Thats the guy Id like to talk to - the mentally challenged one.

RANCHER: That would be me.
