THE CONTRACTOR

Three contractors were visiting a tourist attraction on the same day. One was from Nigeria, another from Germany, and the third from USA. At the end of the tour, the guard asked them what they did for a living.

When they all replied that they were contractors, the guard said, "Hey we need one of the rear fences redone. Why don't you guys take a look at it & give me a bid?" So, to the back fence they all went to check it out.

First to step up was the German contractor. He took out his tape measure and pencil, did some measuring and said, "Well figure the job will run about ?90000. ?40000 for materials, ?40000 for my crew, and ?10000 profit for me."

Next was the American contractor. He also took out his tape measure and pencil, did some quick figuring and said, "Looks like I can do this job for $70000. $30000 for materials, $30000 for my crew, and 100 profit for me."

Without so much as moving, the Nigerian contractor said, "$270000." The guard, incredulous, looked at him and said, "You didn't even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?"

"Easy," he said pulling the guard to one side and lowering his voice. "$1,00000 for you, $1,00000 for me and we hire the guy from America."
