2.11. A very rich man hires a poor man to clean one
wing of his extravagant domicile. The poor man, wanting to impress his new
boss, cleans the entire house. Soon after, the man quits his job. (JC
original?)

2.11 answer: The poor man is hired by Aladdin to clean his palace.
Aladdin only wants the man to clean part of the palace because he does not
wish anyone to enter his bedroom, where he keeps the magic lamp. The poor
man meticulously scrubs the palace from head to toe, and rubs the magic lamp
in the process. The djinn appears; the poor man wishes for riches, and no
longer needs the job.
