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?" Kid says,
"One."

The boss says, "Just one? Our sales people average 20 or 30 sales a day. For
how much?" Kid says "$101,237.64" 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 going to 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."
