A lad knocked on the door of a beautiful large house.

He asked if there were any jobs that needed doing. The man said he would give him £50 to paint the porch. The lad agreed and took the paintbrush and tin of white gloss paint away. The man’s wife said “£50 – that’s far too little. Did he not see the porch goes half way round the house? It will take two days to paint it!” The man replied “Ah but he agreed to do it! He could have checked the job properly and asked for more!”

An hour later the lad knocked on the door. He said “I’ve done it, and there was enough paint to give it a second coat! But you were tricking me. It wasn’t a Porch, it was a Ferrari”.
