Paint the Porch
Stosh had been out of work for close to two years. Needless to
say, he was getting pretty desperate for money. He decided to
go to the nicer, richer neighborhoods around town and look for
odd jobs as a handyman. Well, the first house he came to, a
man answered the door and told Stosh,
"Yeah, I have a job for ya. How would you like to paint the
porch ?"
"Sure, that sounds great !" said Stosh.
"Well, uh, how much do you want me to pay you ?"said the man.
"Is fifty bucks all right ?" Stosh asked.
"Yeah, that's great. You'll find all the paint and ladders you'll
need in the garage."
The man went back into his house to his wife, who had been
listening.
"Fifty bucks! Does he know the porch goes all the way around
the house ?" asked the wife.
"Well he must, he was standing right on it !" her husband
replied.
About 15 minutes later, Stosh knocked on the door. "I'm all
finished," he told the surprised homeowner. The man was
amazed.
"You painted the whole porch ?" "Yeah," Stosh replied, "I even
had some paint left, so I put on two coats !" The man reached
into his wallet to pay Stosh.
"Oh, by the way," said Stosh, "that's not a Porch, it's a Ferrari!"
