Money's Worth

A feisty 70 year-old woman had to call the electric company for a repairman.

After a quick inspection, Al, the man from the power company found the problem and handed her a $70 bill for labor.

"Labor charges! One hour?" she exclaimed. "It only took you five minutes!"

Al explained that his company had a minimum one-hour charge on every house call.

"Well, I want my remaining 55 minutes of labor," the lady responded, and she handed him a rake.

Al spent the next 55 minutes in her yard bagging leaves.
