A SALESMAN A young guy from Minnesota moves to Florida and goes to a big"everything under one roof" department store looking for a job.The Manager says, "Do you have any sales experience?"The kid says "Yeah. I was a salesman back in Minnesota ."Well, the boss liked the kid and gave him the job. "You start tomorrow.I'll come down after we close and see how you did."His first day on the job was rough, but he got through it. After thestore was locked up, the boss came down."How many customers bought something from you today?The kid says "one".The boss says "Just one? Our sales people average 20 to 30 customers aday. How much was the sale for?" The kid says "$101, 237.65".The boss says "$101,237.65? What the heck did you sell?"The kid says, "First, I sold him a small fish hook. Then I sold him amedium fishhook. Then I sold him a larger fishhook. Then I sold him anew fishing rod. Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he saiddown the coast, so I told him he was going to need a boat, so we wentdown to the boat department and I sold him a twin engine Chris Craft.Then he said he didn't think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I tookhim down to the automotive department and sold him that 4x4 Expedition."The boss said "A guy came in here to buy a fish hook and you sold him aBOAT, and a TRUCK?"The kid said "No, the guy came in here to buy Tampons for his wife, andI said, 'Dude, your weekend's shot, you might as well go fishing.' "
I hope he got the tampons too.
Probably not.Without a wife/girlfriend and all that new gear who would need them things. The wife sends the guy to the store for a box of tampons,Being real shy and easily embarrased the guy sneaks around and gets to the checkout without being spotted by any of His buds.No Pricetag on the box.the gal at checkout gets on the PA and hollers out"price check on tampons" the boxboy thinks She says thumbtacks so He goes checking.He gets on the PA and hollers back"do You want a price on the ones You push in with Your thumb or the ones Ya drive in with a hammer"?
You know better than that, He forgot those!
