The Newfie Boat Owner
Permalink  
 


 


The Newfoundland Department of Employment believed a boat owner wasn't paying proper wages to his help.  
An agent was sent to the fishing village of Burin to investigate the boat owner.
 
GOVT  AGENT: "I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them". 
 
Boat Owner:  
"Well, there's  Clarence, my hired hand.  He'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 the work around here.

He makes about $10 per week, and pays his own room and board.

I buy him a bottle of Lamb's rum and a dozen Labatt Lite every Saturday night so he can cope with life.

Also, he gets to sleep with my wife occasionally". 
 
GOVT  AGENT: "That's the guy I want to talk to - the mentally challenged one".
 
Boat Owner:  
"That'll be me. What'd you want to know?"
