A young guy from Missouri 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 home in Missouri."
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?"
The kid says "one."
The boss says, "Just one?!! Our sales people average 20 to 30
sales a day!
How much was the sale for?
The kid says " $101,237.64"

The boss says, "$101,23764? 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 gonna 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 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 says, " No, he came in here to buy ! a box of tampons
for

his wife and

I said, 'Well, your weekend's shot, you might as well go

fishing..' "
