Never Hire a Blonde Painter

By
Real Estate Agent with Retired

A teenage blonde girl, wanting to earn some extra money for the summer  decided to hire herself out as a 'handy-woman' and  started canvassing  a nearby well-to-do neighborhood.

She went to the front door of the first house, and asked the owner if he  had any odd jobs for her to do.

"Well, I guess I could use somebody to paint my  porch," he said. "How much will you charge me?"

Delighted, the girl quickly responded, "How about $50?"

The man agreed and told her that the paint, brushes and everything she would need were in the garage.

The man's wife, hearing the conversation said to her husband, "Does she realize that our porch goes ALL the way around the house?"

He responded, "That's a bit cynical, isn't  it?"

The wife replied, "You're right. I guess I'm starting to believe all  those dumb blonde jokes we've been getting by e-mail  lately."

Later that day, the blonde came to the door to collect her  money.

"You're finished already?" the startled  husband asked.

"Yes," the blonde replied, "and I even had  paint left over, so I gave it two coats." 

Impressed, the man reached into his pocket for the $50.00  and handed it to her along with a ten dollar tip.

"And by the way," the blonde added,  "it's not a porch, it's a Lexus."

Now that's a funny blonde joke.  I had to think a bit, being almost blonde (gray), but I finally got it.   HA HA HA
