A woman hired a contractor to repaint the inside of her house. As they walked through the second floor, she pointed out the colors she wanted for each room.

In the first room, she said, “I think I’d like this in a nice cream color.”

The contractor jotted it down, walked over to the window, opened it, and shouted, “Green side up!” Then, he calmly closed the window and followed her to the next room.

A little puzzled, the woman continued. “For this room, I’m thinking of an off-blue shade.”

Again, the contractor took notes, went to the window, opened it, and yelled, “Green side up!” before shutting it and moving on.

Now, she was really curious, but she didn’t say anything just yet.

In the next room, she said, “I’d like a soft rose color here.”

And once more, the contractor opened the window and shouted, “Green side up!”

Finally, she couldn’t hold back any longer. “Why do you keep yelling ‘Green side up’ out my window every time I pick a color?”

The contractor chuckled and said, “Oh, I’ve got a crew of blondes laying sod across the street.”
