He goes online to find someone to fix his fence, but he is unsatisfied with their prices. He keeps on looking for quite some time and then he finds a Buddhist monk who will do it for free.
He is initially surprised by this and assumes it might be a fake listing, but since it's free he feels like he has nothing to lose he hires him.
Sure enough, a few days later the monk shows up with a toolkit in hand. The man shows the monk that his fence has been ripped out of the ground and that he needs to replace it.
About an hour later the monk walks in and tells the man that he has finished and when the man goes outside he sees that the fence is perfect. Thinking he can't just tell the monk to leave after doing such a great job for free, he invites the monk inside for a cup of coffee.
The man then starts talking to the monk, "It surprised me to see a monk offering services for fence repair, why do you do it?" he asked,
the monk replied "Religious reasons."
The man then says "I don't know much about Buddhism, why do you need to repair fences?"
"Because," the monk replied, "you'd be surprised at the amount of karma one can get for reposting."
