A young Aussie lad moved to London and went to Harrods looking for a job The manager asked Do you have any sales experience? The young man answered Yeah I was a salesman back home in Dubbo The manager liked the Aussie so he gave him the job His first day was challenging and busy but he got through it After the store was locked up the manager came down and asked OK so how many sales did you make today? The Aussie said One The manager groaned and continued Just one? Our sales people average 20 or 30 sales a day How much was the sale for? Pound 188 427 55 The manager choked and exclaimed Pound 188 427 55 What the hell did you sell him??? Well first I sold him a small fish hook then a medium fish hook and 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 would need a boat so we went down to the boat department and I sold him that twin-engine Power Cat Then he said he didn t think his Honda Civic would pull it so I took him down to car sales and I sold him the 4 x4 The manager incredulous said You mean to tell me a guy came in here to buy a fish hook and you sold him a boat and a 4x4? No no no he came in here to buy a box of tampons for his lady friend and I said Well since your weekend s buggered you might as well go fishing
