The Montana Department of Employment, Division of
Post# of 5246
a small rancher was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to investigate him.
GOV’T AGENT:
“I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them.”
RANCHER:
”Well, there’s my hired hand who’s been with me for 3 years. I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board.
Then there’s 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, and
I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night so he can cope with life.
He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.”
GOV’T AGENT:
“That’s the guy I want to talk to - the mentally challenged one.”
RANCHER:
“That would be me.”
