The wife was very upset about this and asked,

Now Maria, why do you think you deserve a pay increase?

' Maria: 'Well, Senora. There are three reasons why I deserve a raise.

The first is that I iron better than you.'

Wife: 'Who said you iron better than me?'

Maria: 'Your husband said so.' Wife: 'Oh.' Maria:

'The second reason is that I am a better cook than you.'
Wife: 'Nonsense, who said you were a better cook than me?

' Maria: Your husband did.' Wife: 'Oh.' Maria:

'My third reason is that I am a better lover than you.'

Wife (really furious now): 'Did my husband say that as well?'

Maria: 'No, Senora. The gardener did.'

SHE GOT THE RAISE!
