A painting contractor was speaking with a woman about her job. In the first room she said she would like a pale blue. The contractor wrote this down and went to the window, opened it, and yelled out "green side up!"

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 labour and $100 profit for me."
The German 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 Pakistani contractor doesn`t measure or 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?"

A woman calls a painting contractor to her house to give her a quote on painting the interior. She takes him into the first room and says she'd like it painted pale blue. The contractor jots something down on his note pad, goes to the window and yells out, 'green side up'.
The woman takes him to the next room and says she'd like that one painted a pale pink. Again, the contractor jots it down, goes over to the window and yells out, 'green side up'.
Although curious, the woman continues to show him the rest of the house. In each room, the contractor takes note of her color choice, goes to the window and yells out, 'green side up'.
When they completed the tour, the woman asked the contractor why he always yelled 'green side up' whenever she told him her color choices, since all the colors were different.
Laughing, the contractor replied, "I have a crew of blondes across the street laying down sod."

Why don't you guys take a look at it and give me a bid?'' So to the back fence they all went.
First to step up was the Florida contractor. He took out his tape measure and pencil, did some measuring and said, ''Well I figure the job will run about $900. $400 for materials, $400 for my crew, and $100 profit for me.''

Without so much as moving, the New York contractor said, ''$2,700.''
The guard, incredulous, looked at him and said, ''You more...
