A woman walked into a bank and requested a loan. The loan officer gave her an application to fill out. He looked it over when she had finished. "And what is your profession?" he asked. The woman paused for a moment and hesitantly answered, "I'm a... a streetwalker."
The officer frowned and took off his glasses. "Look, I know what you must be thinking," the woman said. "But come on, give me a break! This bad economy is affecting everybody, even those in my profession."
The loan officer remained silent, not quite knowing what to say. "Have a heart," the woman concluded, "I just need a small loan so I can get back on my back."
