TweetA young guy from West Virginia moves to Florida and goes to a big " everything under one roof" department store looking for a job.

The Manager says, " Do you have an sales experience?"

the kid says " Yeah. I was a vacuum salesman back in West Virginia."

Well, the boss was unsure, but he liked the kid and figured he'e give him a shot, so he gave him a 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 to the sales floor.

"How many cosumters bought something from you today?"

The kid frowns and looks at the floor and mutters, "One".

The boss says "Just one?!?!?! Our sales people average 20 to 30 customers a day. That will have to change and soon, if you'd like to continue your employment here. We have very strict standardds for our sales force here in Florida. One sale a day might have been acceptable in West Virginia, but you're not in the mines anymore, son."

The kid looks up at his boss and says "$1001,237.65".

The boss astonished, says "$101,237.65!?! What the heck did you sell?"

The kid says, "Well, first I sold him some new fish hooks. Then I sold him a new fishing rod to go with his new hooks. Then I asked him where he was fishing and he said down the coast, so I told him he was going to need a boat, so we went down 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 took him 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 a boat and truck!?!"

The kid said " No, the guy came in here to buy tampons for his wife, and I said, " Dude, your weekends screwed, perhaps you should go fishing."

TweetNice and I understand I'm a avid fisherman
