In the morning he drove up to her place and said …
“Sorry madam, but I have some bad news for you. The donkey died.”
Lisa replied, “Well, in that case just give me my money back then.”
The farmer said, “Can’t do that. I’ve already spent it.”
Lisa said, “OK then, just bring me the dead donkey.”
The farmer asked, “What are you going to do with him?”
Lisa said, “I’m going to give him off in a lottery as prize.”
The farmer said,
“It is impossible…
You can’t do that with a dead donkey!”
Lisa said, “Sure I can. Watch me. I just won’t tell anybody he is dead.”
A month later, the farmer met Lisa and asked,
“What happened with that dead donkey?”
Lisa said, “I gave him off in a lottery. I sold 500 tickets at £2 each and made a profit of £898.”
The farmer said, “Didn’t anyone complain?”
Lisa said, “Just the guy who won. So I gave him his £2 back.”
Lisa now works with RELIANCE JIO as Head of Business Strategy.
