JokesMarriage A Maid Asked The Lady Of The House For A Raise. This Is Funny. A maid asks the lady of the house for a raise. “Why on Earth do you think you deserve that?” the lady asks. Because your husband says I cook better than you ever did. “Oh does he now? Well, that’s not enough, why else?” the lady asks. “He also says I clean better than you ever did” the maid says. “I shall give him a piece of my mind later then, but that’s still not enough to get a rise from me,” the lady replies. “OK, I better in bed than you too.” “WHAT!” screamed the lady. “How dare you. And did my husband tell you that too?” “No,” says the maid: “It was the gardener, and now I think we can settle on double my rate.” See more Previous joke The Little Johnny Ask His Mother.
