The IRS suspected a fishing boat owner wasn't paying proper wages to his deckhand and sent an agent to investigate him.
IRS AUDITOR: "I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them".
BOAT OWNER: "Well, there's Clarence, my deckhand, he's been with me three years. I pay him $1,000. a week plus free room and board.
Then there's this 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, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of Bacardi rum and a dozen Budweiser's every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also gets to sleep with my wife occasionally".
IRS AUDITOR: "That's the guy I want to talk to, the mentally challenged one".
BOAT OWNER: "That would be me. What would you like to know"?
