There
was a barber in a developing country who had a little shed at the
roadside to cut hair, and a certain man used to come in regularly
for haircuts. One day he noticed that a dog was always sitting underneath,
near the chair where the customers sat for their haircuts. So the
man asked the barber, “Is that your dog?” And the barber
replied, “No, he always comes every day. It’s not my dog.
I don’t know whose dog it is.” Then the customer asked,
“So if it’s not your dog, you never feed him, right?”
And the barber said, “No.” And the customer said, “Then
why does he always come here every day?” And the barber answered,
“He’s waiting in case an ear comes off.”
