Employee of the Month!
A young guy from Minnesota moves to Florida and goes to a
Big 'everything under one roof'
Department store looking for a job.
The Manager says, 'Do you have any sales
Experience?'
The kid says, 'Yeah, I was a salesman back in
Minnesota .'
Well, the boss liked the kid and 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 customers bought something from you today?
The kid says, '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 says, '$101,237.65?' What the heck did
You sell?'
The kid says, 'First I sold him a small fish hook.
Then I sold him a medium fishhook. Then I sold
Him a larger fis hhook. 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 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 a TRUCK?'
The kid said, 'No the guy came in here to buy tampons
For his wife and I said, 'Dude, your
Weekend's' shot - you should go fishing!
