In a big city was a very big department store, from which you could by absolutely anything you can dream of. I mean everything. The store put an announcement on a paper about an open job for a sales assistant. One applicant was this shyish country guy.
Sales manager was testing him.
¿So you¿re from the countryside?¿
¿Yes¿¿
¿Have you done any shop working before?¿
¿Yes, in my hometown¿¿
Although he appeared to be so shy, the sales manager somehow liked him, and recruited him. After the long and sweaty first day the manager went to see how the country boy had done himself.
¿So, how many deals did you do?¿
¿One¿
The manager was a bit disappointed and says: ¿well, our worker normally makes about 20 to 30 deals per day. What was your deal worth?
¿1,2 millions¿
¿1,2 millions!!!! What on earth did you sell????¿
¿Well. First I sold this pal a tiny fishing hook, then a bit bigger one, then a big Rapala-set and a also a do-it-yourself fly kit. Then he of course needed some line. First I sold him a regular type, then a bit stronger type, and then this real barracuda-proof extra line. Next he naturally needed rods and reels. Then we figured that a decent boat is a necessity. I took him to our boat department and sold him a Marino 9000 model with all possible extra equipment. Next he realised that his old Volkswagen can¿t pull all the stuff, no way, so I took him to the car department too. And sold him a Range Rover and a trailer! Altogether that should make about 1.198.160 marks!¿
¿FUCKING HELL!! A guy comes to buy a fishing hook and you sell him all THAT!!!¿
¿Well¿not exactly¿ in fact he came to buy tampons to his wife. I told him that since your weekend is ruined in any case, you could as well go fishing¿¿
