A young man from Mississippi moves to Florida and goes to a big "everything under one roof" department store looking for a job.
The manager asks, "Do you have any sales experience?"
"Well, yeah, I 've done a litte sales work, back in Mississippi."
Well, the boss liked the kid and gave him a job. "You start tomorrow, I'll come down after we close to 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 customers bought from you today?"
The kid replies, "One"
The Boss says, "Just one? Our sales people average 20 to 30 customers a day. How much was the sale for?"
The kid says "$101,237.65."
The Boss is blown away. "$101,237.63? What the heck did you sell him?"
The kid says "First I sold him a small fish hook, then I sold him a medium fish hook Then I sold him a large fish hook. Then I sold him a new fishing rod. Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast, so I told him he was going to need a boat, so we went down the boat dept. and I sold him a twin engine Chriss Craft. Then he realized that his Honda Civic wouldn't pull it, so I sold him that 4x4 Expedition."
The Boss said "A guy come in to buy a fish hook and you sold him a BOAT and a TRUCK?'
"Heck, no!" The kid exclaimed. "He came in to buy tampons for his wife, and I said...."DUDE!-your weekend’s shot---you should go fishing!....."
Have a Great Day.......... PT
