Sell it UP!


A kid gets a job in a small department store.  On his first day, the
manager shows the kid round, and explains that the company policy was
to sell a product, with a product.  The kid looked confused....so the
manager said he would show him what he meant.

Now, it just so happened that a customer approached the manager and
asked if they sold grass seed. "Certainly", pointing to the wide range
of seed boxes, "and what sort of lawn mower would you like?"

The customer looked baffled, so the manager went on "Well, you will sow
the grass, the grass will grow, and you will need a lawn mower to cut
it."

"I hadn't thought of that," says the customer, "I'll take the lawn
mower as well  then".... and the customer leaves the store happy.

The manager then looks at the kid and says "Now do you understand our
policy?" to which the kid replies "Yes...it's good!"

Just then, a bloke walks into the store. The manager says to the kid
"Go on, you can deal with this guy".

So the kid asks the bloke if he can help. "Yes" replies the guy
hesitantly, "Do you sell tampons, as I need some for my wife..."

"Certainly", pointing to a shelf with tampons etc on it, "and what sort
of lawn mower would you like?"

The customer looked baffled and the manager's face drops, so the kid
went on "Well, your weekend's fucked....so you may as well cut the
grass!"
