Painter's Estimate

Guidry called in Plotke, the painter, for an estimate to paint his house.

- How much you gonna charge me? - asked Guidry.

- Twenty dollars an hour, - replied Plotke.

- Good Lord! - exclaimed the home owner.

- I wouldn't pay Michelangelo that price!

- I tell you one thing, mister, - said the painter.

- If that guy you mentioned is doin' the job for less, he ain't no member of our union!
