Young guy came to big department store and asked the manager if there was any job for him on sales department.
The manager said "Ok, you have one day to show me your talent. "
After closing, the manager came to the youngster and asked how many deals he had made and how much did he sell?
When the youngster answered that he only made one deal, the manager started to laugh and asked "what did you sell then? Maybe a pack of cigarettes?"
"No",said young guy.
"First I sold him some fishing hooks. Then I said that he should also change new line to his rod. After a while the customer understood, that he would need all new fishing gear with lots of different lures and baits. After selling those, I told him that he would definetly need a new boat. And for boat he naturally needed a new trailer. Then I discovered that this poor man was driving a tiny old Datsun, so I said he would need a deasant car to move the boat. So I sold him a new F150. And all this was 125000$."
"What the f..k", said manager. "Are you saying that you sold all that, eventough the client only wanted some fishing hooks?"
"Not quite", youngster said. "Actually the client came here to buy tampons for his wife and I said that your weekend is ruined anyway, so why wouldn't you go fishing ";)
