On Monday, a truck driver strolled into a diner off the highway with a full-grown emu following close behind.
\nThe waitress approached and asked for his order.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll take a burger, fries, and a coffee,\u201d the truck driver said. He glanced at the emu, \u201cWhat about you?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSounds good to me. Same for me, please,\u201d the emu replied.<\/p>\n
Having seen it all, the waitress brought their food and told them, \u201cThat\u2019ll be $10.50.\u201d<\/p>\n
The truck driver reached into his pocket, pulled out the exact change, and handed it over!<\/p>\n
The next day, the duo returned. He ordered the same meal, and the emu echoed, \u201cSame for me, please.\u201d<\/p>\n
Once again, the waitress charged him the same price, and he reached into his pocket, producing the exact change!<\/p>\n
This continued for several days. Then, one evening, they walked in again, and the waitress asked, \u201cThe usual?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNope, it\u2019s Friday night. I\u2019ll have a steak, baked potato, and a salad,\u201d said the truck driver.<\/p>\n
The emu chimed in, \u201cSounds great\u2026 same for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
The waitress brought their food and said, \u201cThat\u2019ll be $32.65.\u201d<\/p>\n
Without missing a beat, the truck driver reached into his pocket and, once again, had the exact change!<\/p>\n
Finally, the waitress couldn\u2019t contain her curiosity. \u201cAlright, I have to know. How do you always have the exact change on you every single time?\u201d<\/p>\n
The truck driver grinned. \u201cWell, a few years back, I was cleaning out my shed and stumbled on an old lamp. When I polished it up, a genie popped out and granted me two wishes. My first wish was that anytime I had to pay for something, I could just reach in my pocket, and the exact change would be there.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s brilliant!\u201d said the impressed waitress. \u201cNo need for a million bucks\u2026 you\u2019ll never run out of money!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cExactly,\u201d said the truck driver, smiling. \u201cWhether it\u2019s a pack of gum or a new car, I\u2019ve always got the exact amount!\u201d<\/p>\n
The waitress, still eyeing the emu, finally curiously asked, \u201cSo, what about the bird?\u201d<\/p>\n
The truck driver sighed and shrugged. \u201cWell, my second wish was for a tall bird with long legs and a great personality who\u2019d agree with everything I say.\u201d<\/p>\n
LOL!!<\/p>\n
Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
