Can’t take credit for this one, if you’re the kind of Playboy reader I am, the first place you look is the centerfold and then immediate after that you read through the Party Jokes page. Well, I’d say every couple issues there’s a gem of a joke – a diamond in the rough – that’s worth serious commemoration. This is one of those jokes:
Three contractors were bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House. The first contractor said, “I figure the job will run about $900 – $400 for materials, $400 for my crew and $100 profit for me.”
The second contractor announced, “I can do this job for $700 – $300 for materials, $300 for my crew and $100 profit for me.”
The third contractor leaned over to the White House official and whispered, “$2700.”
The incredulous White House official asked him, “How did you come up with such a high figure?”
The contractor smiled and said, “$1000 for me, $1000 for you, and we hire the second guy to fix the fence.”
And if you really must know, it was in the April 2009 issue of Playboy.
