"You Always Sleep with Your Hairdresser - Don't You?" by Sven the Elder.
http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=220096085

The guy is new in the neighborhood. While he's out working in the yard, one
of the more established ladies of the neighborhood assumes he is the gardener
and asks for his rates. When he states a low wage, she asks for his card; and
he decides to get her off his back by stating that he expects perks as well.
"Oh I'm sure we could come to some arrangements," she says; "I mean I could
supply plenty of refreshments and a midday meal as well." "Ah yes," the man
replies, "But I gets to sleep with the mistress of the house as well."

The exact route by which the narrator gets from there to an emboinkment with
the hairdresser is better explained by the author than by a humble critic like
myself. For that matter, this guy would probably claim to sleep with the
literary critic as well, if he thought it would do him any good!
