A guy is sitting in a bar; absolutely drooling at a pretty young thing in her short, pink mini-dress. Using the time-honoured icebreaker, he sends her a drink.

Finally, the girl turns to him and says, "Look, you seem like a really nice guy, so I have to tell you that I'm a working girl.

Two weeks later, the man walked through the bank's doors, and asked to settle up his loan and get his car back.
