A man owned a Fish Shop. The Department of Consumer & Employment Protection heard that he was not paying proper wages to his employees and sent an agent down to interview him.
"I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them," demanded the
agent.
"Well," replied the fish guy,"there's my assistant manager who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $400 a week plus free room and board. The stock boy has been here for 18 months, and I pay him $450 per week plus free room and board.
Then there's the half-wit who 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 scotch every Saturday night. He also sleeps with my girlfriend occasionally."
"That's the guy I want to talk to - the half-wit," says the agent.
"That would be me," replied fish guy!.
