Small farmer joke. The Department of Labor visited a small farm where migrants were employed, to check on their wages, working conditions, and general welfare. The agent had a list of standard questions for the farmer before the interviews began.
How many work here? Where do they live? Are bathrooms available? What are the working hours? What are they paid?
The farmer answered: “They work 8 hours per day and are paid the federal minimum of 7.50/hr.
But there is one old guy who works 14 hours per day, gets no sick time and gets paid $1.85 per hour.”
“That’s the guy I want to talk to,” said the agent.
“You’re talking to him now.”
