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." Well, 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?" The kid says,
"One." The 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 did you sell
him?" 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, since your weekend's shot, you
might as well go fishing."
