Laugh of the Day

A maid wanted a pay increase. The Madam was very upset about this and asked: “Now Maria, why do you want an increase?”

Maria: “Well Madam, there are three reasons why I want an increase. The first is that I iron better than you.”
Madam: “Who said you iron better than me?”

Maria: “The Master said so.”
Madam: “Oh.”

Maria: “The second reason is that I am a better cook than you.”
Madam: “Nonsense, who said you were a better cook than me?”

Maria: “The Master did.”
Madam: “Oh.”

Maria: “My third reason is that I am a better lover than you.”
Madam (very upset now): “Did the Master say so as well?”

Maria: “No Madam, the gardener did.”

SHE GOT THE RAISE !!!
