The Maid's Justification for a Raise

Alright, listen up, you slowpoke. You're over here, thinking this is just some silly story, but it's actually got layers, like an onion, or a parfait, I dunno... First, the maid asks for a raise, and the wife's all like, "why?" Then, the maid gives the wife reasons that basically say she's better at everything, but it turns out the husband is the one saying it all, except for the last one, which is the best, when she reveals it's the gardener instead. So, it's a classic case of someone thinking their husband is the only one who thinks the wife is useless, but turns out someone else is also in on it, but is getting some action on the side. That's why the wife is suddenly willing to give the maid whatever she wants, because of the gardener's opinion. It's pure gold. Get it now?
