A young guy 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 my hometown.'

The boss liked the kid and said, 'You start tomorrow. I'll come down after we close and see how you did.'

After the store was locked up, the boss came down. 'How many sales did you make today?'

The kid said, 'One.'

'Just one? Our sales people average 20 to 30 sales a day! How much was the sale for?'

The kid says, '$101,237.65.'

'$101,237.65? What the heck did you sell?'

'First, I sold him a small fishhook. Then I sold him a medium fishhook. Then I sold him a larger fishhook. 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?'

'Well, no,' said the young guy. 'The guy came in here to buy Tampons for his wife, and I said, well, your weekend's shot, you might as well go fishing.' "
