The Haircut
One
day a florist went to a barber for a haircut.
After
the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied,
'I
cannot accept money from you,
I'm
doing community service this week.'
The
florist was pleased and left the shop.
When
the barber went to open his shop the next morning,
there
was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.
Later,
a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill,
the
barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you ,
I'm
doing community service this week.'
The
cop was happy and left the shop.
The
next morning when the barber went to open up,
there
was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.
Then
a Congressman came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his bill,
the
barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you.
I'm
doing community service this week.'
The
Congressman was very happy and left the shop.
The
next morning, when the barber went to open up,
there
were a dozen Congressmen lined up waiting for a free haircut.
And
that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between
the
citizens of our country and the politicians who run it.
REMEMBER: POLITICIANS AND DIAPERS SHOULD BE
CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON.
