He wants a job with the biggest department store. So he meets with the manager of the store and the manager asks him "so what makes you think you'd be so good at sales?"
"Because I am good at figuring out what people might want" said the young sales boy.
The manager decides to give him a shot and tells him to start at 8am the next morning and he'll be by at 5pm to see how he did.
The day was long but the boy made it through. At 5pm the boss came to see how the day went and asked "so how many sales did you make today?"
"Just one" says the boy
"Just one!? The first day most of my guys make 30 to 40 sales. How much was this sale worth?"
"$176,391" says the boy, proudly.
"What?!" Exclaims the manager, "How did you manage to make one sale for that much?!"
"Well it was easy" the boy explained, "this guy came in and I sold him a small fish hook. The a medium fish hook and some tackle. He decided he needed some new rods so he picked up a couple of the new stock we have in. I asked him where he was going fishing and he said way up north. So I said 'well you'll need a boat.' We went over to the boats and he picked up a 24 ft schooner. He took one look at that and said my Volkswagen is never going to pull that so we went to the car lot and he got a new 4x4"
The manager was in shock. "You sold all of that to a guy that came in to buy a fish hook?"
"No, he came in to buy some tampons for his wife and I said 'well your weekends shot. Might as well go fishing"
