The maid asked for a raise. The lady of the house was very upset and
Asked: "Now Maria, why do you want an increase?"
"Well Madam, there are three reasons why I want an increase. The first
Is that I iron better than you."
"Who said you iron better than me?"
"The Master said so."
The lady of the house said, "Oh."
"The second reason is that I am a better cook than you."
"Nonsense, who said you were a better cook than I am?"
Maria said, "The Master did."
"Oh."
"My third reason is that I am a better lover than you."
Very upset, the Lady of the house said, "Did the Master say so as
Well?"
"No Madam, the gardener did."
Maria got the raise.
