Respect Skill

An American was travelling in Afghanistan and his car broke down. He tried his best to repair it, but nothing worked and the car didn’t start. Finally, a mechanic came from the hills came riding a donkey. He opened the bonnet, looked at it and hit the cylinder six times. He asked the American to start it and it started! The American asked, “How much?” The mechanic said, $100. The American gasped and asked him to itemize the bill. 

The mechanic said, “10 cents for hitting six times and $99.90 for knowing where to hit.” 


Moral of the story: Respect the skilled people.
