"The Salesman" joke
TEXAS SALESMAN -
A young guy from Texas moves to California and goes to
a big department store looking for a job. The manager
says, "Do you have any sales experience?"
The kid says, "Yeah, I was a salesman back home in
Texas." The boss liked the kid so he 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 the store was
locked up, the boss came down. "How many sales did you
make today?"
Kid says, "One."
Boss says, "Just one? Our sales people average 20 or
30 sales a day. How much was the sale for?" Kid says
"$101,237.64."
Boss says "$101,237.64? What the heck did you sell?"
Kid says, "First I sold him a small fish hook.Then I
sold him a medium fish hook. Then I sold him a larger
fish hook. Then I sold him a new fishing rod.Then I
asked him where he was going fishing and he said down
at the coast, so I told him he was gonna need a boat,
so we went down to the boat department and I sold him
that twin engine Chris Craft. Then he said he didn't
think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him
down
to the automotive department and sold him that 4X4
Blazer."
The boss said, "A guy came in here to buy a fish hook
and you sold him a boat and truck?"
Kid says, "No, he came in here to buy a box of tampons
for his wife and I said, "Well, your weekend's shot,
you might as well go fishing."
