The New Zealand Taxation Office suspected a fishing boat
owner wasn't paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent to
investigate him.
NZ TAX AGENT TO BOAT OWNER: "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 $1,000 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,
pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of Coruba rum and a
dozen Lagers every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also gets to
sleep with my wife occasionally".
NZ TO AUDITOR: "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"?
