Contractor (Joke)

Three contractors . . . One from Pakistan, another from Germany and the third from England are bidding to repair the White House fence. A senior White House official takes them to examine it.

The English contractor: takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works on some figures with a pencil. "Well," he says. "I figure the job will cost $900 . . . $400 for materials, $400 for labor and $100 profit for me."
The German contractor: also does some measuring and figuring, and then says," I can do this job for $700 . . . $300 for materials, $300 for my crew and $100 profit for me."

The Pakistani contractor doesn't measure nor do any figuring, but leans over to the White House official and whispers: "$2,700."

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

"Easy," the Pakistani explains, "$1,000 for you, $1,000 for me and we hire the guy from Germany to do the work!"

Guess who got the contract........................!!
