“Sweetheart, great news! My boss just invited me on a week-long fishing trip out of town. It could be a big opportunity for a promotion. Could you please pack my clothes for the week, get my fishing rod and tackle box ready—and don’t forget my new blue silk pajamas?”
The wife feels something isn’t quite right, but being supportive, she does everything he asks.
A week later, the husband returns home, looking pleased and just a bit tired. The wife immediately starts asking questions—how was the trip, did he catch anything, how was the weather?
“It was amazing,” he says. “We caught loads of fish—salmon, bluegill, even a few swordfish! But…” He pauses, frowning. “Why didn’t you pack my blue silk pajamas?”
The wife smiles slyly and replies, “Oh, I did. They were in your fishing box.”
A doctor and a lawyer are chatting at a party, just trying to relax.
Every few minutes, someone interrupts the doctor.
“Hey, could you take a look at this rash?”
“My back’s been killing me lately.”
“Does this mole look normal to you?”
After an hour of nonstop free checkups, the doctor sighs in frustration and turns to the lawyer.
“How do you handle people constantly asking for free legal advice outside work?”
The lawyer grins.
“Easy. I give them the advice… then send them a bill.”
The doctor stares at him. “You’re kidding.”
“Not at all,” the lawyer says, sipping his drink.
The doctor, both amused and inspired, decides to give it a try.
The next morning, he writes up bills for everyone who pestered him at the party.
But just as he heads to the mailbox to send them off…
he notices something already waiting inside.
A bill.
From the lawyer.
