Madam, "Is this a union house?" "No," she replied, "I'm sorry it isn't."

"Well, if I pay you $100, what cut do the girls get?" "The house gets $80

and the girls get $20," she answered. Mightily offended at such unfair

dealings, the union man stomped off down the street in search of a more

equitable, hopefully unionized shop.

His search continued until finally he reached a brothel where he asked if

this was a union house? The Madam responded, "Why yes sir, this is a union

house. We observe all union rules." The man asked, "And if I pay you $100,

what cut do the girls get?" She said, The girls get $80 and the house gets

$20." "That's more like it!" the union man said. He handed the Madam $100,

looked around the room, and pointed to a stunningly attractive blonde. "I'd

like her," he said. "I'm sure you would, sir," said the Madam. Then she

gestured to a 92-year old woman in the corner, "but Ethel here has 67 years

seniority

and according to union rules, she's next.
