It's a Funny Story

Hired Help

A man dials his home and a strange woman answers. The man says, "Who is this? " "This is the maid," answers the woman. "We don't have a maid," says the man. The woman says, "I was hired this morning by the lady of the house. " The man says, "Well, this is her husband. Is she there? " The woman replies, "She is upstairs in the bedroom with someone who I figured was her husband. " The man is fuming and says to the maid, "Listen, would you like to make $50,000? " The maid says, "What will I have to do? " The man tells her, "I want you to get my gun from the desk, and shoot the witch and the jerk she's with. " The maid puts the phone down; the man hears footsteps and then two gun shots. The maid comes back to the phone "What do I do with the bodies? " The man says, "Throw them in the swimming pool. " Puzzled, the maid answers, "But you don't have a pool. " A long pause and the man says, "Is this 567-5309? "
