Joseph said, 'my servant is so foolish 😒 that every morning he buries some chicken bones in the ground. He thinks that he can grow chicken in this way.'
Abebe said, 'my servant is foolish😝. He thinks that birds crying in the trees cause rain.'
They argued about which servant was more foolish.they argued for two hours. Finaly they decided to test their servants.
Joseph seid, 'Here is how we will solve the problem. Tomorrow at two o'clock, bring your servant to my house. We will each give our servants a stily job. The one who does his job is more foolish.'
The next day, the two men met in Joseph's house. As soon as they arrived, Abebe said to his servant, 'Run home and see if I'm there. I want to talk to myself.'
When Abebe's servant left, Joseph said to his own servant, 'Here is one dollar.Go and buy me a new car.' The second servant took the money and went out to do the job.

of them were very angry.Joseph's servant said😒, my foolish master told me to buy him a new car, and he gave me some money. I can't buy it. He didn't tell tell me what colour he wanted.'
Abebe's servant said😝, 'my master is more foolish. He told me to go to his house and see if he is there. Why didn't he telephone and find out quickly?'
