My wife received a salary increase at her work.

Where does she work?

At the accounting firm across town.

Is that by the restaurant with the clown?

What does your wife do?

I haven't a clue!

Why would that be?

She is free.

What do you mean?

She stays home to clean.

We had to hire a cleaning lady.

Did you hire O'Grady?

Yep, but we eat out every night.

Our homemade meals are a delight.

My wife stopped cooking when she started her position.

Before we were married, my wife was a dietitian.

Why doesn't she work out side the home?

Because, she stays home.
