Three Contractors


Three contractors are bidding to fix the White House fence, one from New York, another from Tennessee, and the third from Florida.

They go with a White House official to examine the fence.

The Florida contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil.   "Well," he says. "I figure the job will run about $900:  $400 for materials, $400 for my crew, and $100 profit for me."

The Tennessee contractor also does some measuring and figuring, then says, "I can do this job for $700: $300 for materials, $300 for my crew, and $100 profit for
me."

The New York contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans over to the White House official and whispers: "$2,700."

The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measure like the other guys!  How did you come up with such a high figure?"

$1,000 for me, $1,000 for you, and we hire the guy from Tennessee."
