A local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest

🍋 A local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around, that they offered a standing $1,000 bet.

The bartender would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass, then hand the lemon to a patron. Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money. 💰

Many people had tried over time—weightlifters, longshoremen, etc.—but nobody could do it. 💪

One day, a scrawny little man came in, wearing thick glasses and a cheap suit, and said in a tiny, squeaky voice, "I'd like to try the bet." 🤓

After the laughter had died down, the bartender said okay, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away. Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man. 🍋

But the crowd's laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon, and six drops fell into the glass. 🥤

As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the $1,000 and asked the little man, "What do you do for a living? Are you a lumberjack, a weightlifter, or what?" 🤔

The man replied, "I work for the IRS." 💼💸
