The Farmer in South Dakota (Wages)
The South Dakota Department of government offices claimed a small Deuel County farmer was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to investigate him.

SD Govt employee: 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. 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 bourbon every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.

SD Govt employee: That's the guy I want to talk to...the mentally challenged one.



Farmer: That would be me.
