A pipe burst in a lawyer’s house, so he called a plumber.
The plumber arrived, unpacked his tools, did mysterious plumber-type things for a while, and handed the lawyer a bill for $150.
The lawyer exclaimed, “This is ridiculous! I don’t even make that much as a lawyer!”
The plumber replied sympathetically, “Neither did I when I was a lawyer. “
