An elderly Gentleman applying for Social Security
An elderly gentleman heads into the Social Security office to apply for his benefits. When he finally gets to see an agent she starts his application process. When she asked for his documentation he handed it over. While going through his documentation she discovers he did not provide a state ID.
The Agent asks, “May I see your ID?”
After searching for a bit, he responds in distress… “I must have left it at home”
The Agent, “Well you will have to go get it before we can continue.”
The elderly gentleman sighs, “That is a lot easier said than done as I have difficulties getting around.”
The Agent showing some unusual compassion asks to see his chest.
Bewildered, he asks “Why?”
The Agent “To see if you have any gray hair on your chest”
Totally confused as to why she wants to see his gray chest hair, he proceeds to open his shirt, and asks why again.
The agent responds with, “You must be at least 65 to have gray hair on your chest.” and continued on with processing his application.
When he returned home, he started telling his wife of the ordeal. Puzzled as to how he was able to apply without his ID she asked…. He responded telling her about the Agent wanting to see his gray chest hair, and that was good enough for her to verify his age.
His wife now upset turns to him and says, “Well why didn’t you pull down your pants and get disability too!!!”
