Funny Joke: The Dishonest Painter

There was a painter by the name of Bill who was very interested in saving a penny where he could, so he would often thin his paint to make it go further. As it happened, he got away with this for quite some time. One day, a church decided to do a big restoration job that involved painting one of its largest churches. Bill put in a bid, and because his price was so low, he got the job. He went about raising the trestles, setting up the planks, buying the paint, and yes, thinning it down with water.

Bill was up on the scaffolding, painting away with the job nearly completed, when suddenly there was a horrendous clap of thunder and the sky opened, pouring down torrential rain that washed the thinned paint off the church and knocked Bill off the scaffold and onto the lawn. Bill was no fool. He knew this was judgment from the Almighty, so he got on his knees and cried out, “Oh God, forgive me! What should I do?”

Amid the thunder and lightning, a mighty voice spoke: “Repaint!” it boomed. “Repaint and thin no more!”
