A young Texan moves to California and goes to a big department store
looking for a job. The manager asks if he has 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?" The kid says,
"$101,237.64." The boss says, "$101,237.64? What the hell 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."
