Our Mexican maid asked for a pay increase. My wife was very upset about this and decided to talk to her about the raise.
She asked: "Now, Maria, why do you want a pay increase?"
Maria: "Well, Señora, there are three reasons why I want an increase. The first is that I iron better than you."
Wife: "Who said you iron better than me?"
Maria: "Your husband said so."
Wife: "Oh."
Maria: "The second reason is that I am a better cook than you are."
Wife: "Nonsense! Who said you were a better cook than me?"
Maria: "Your husband did."
Wife: "Oh."
Maria: "My third reason is that I am a better lover than you."
Wife (really furious now): "Did my husband say that as well?"
Maria: "No, Señora . . . the gardener did."
Wife: "So how much do you want?"
Don't blame me. Blame Paul (A.), who says that he does not have a Mexican maid. Whether I believe him or not is a whole other matter.
Naughty joke.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is.
ReplyDeleteNaughty, naughty, naughty!
ReplyDeleteOh, Mimi, come now. You've SEEN my house. You KNOW we don't have a maid!
ReplyDeleteCatherine (A.)
All right, Catherine, I believe YOU. But you do have a naughty husband who tricks ladies of a certain age into posting naughty jokes.
ReplyDeleteAnd you are notoriously difficult to trick, Mimi, so Paul (A.) must be terribly sly.
ReplyDeletePaul, yes indeed. The other Paul is a sly trickster. He slips more than a few naughty jokes past me, while I'm not paying close attention.
ReplyDeleteI shall try this on my friend here at Waterloo, who has a Portugese maid ;=)
