A man was down on his luck and in desperate need of a job.
He saw an advertisement in the newspaper for a job in sales. He didn’t know anything about sales but figured he could learn, so he contacted the company.
“It’s very simple,” said the hiring manager. “You go door-to-door selling toothbrushes. Everyone needs a toothbrush, you should be able to sell lots of them.”
The man agreed and went out to a large housing tract for the day. When he returned to the office, he was asked how his day went.
“I sold one toothbrush,” he said.
The hiring manager was not happy. “Look, I know it’s your first day in sales, so I’ll forgive it this time. But you gotta sell more than one if you want to keep your job.”
The next day, the man went to another neighborhood. When he returned to the office at the end of the day he said, “I sold two toothbrushes today!”
Now the hiring manager was furious. “It is far from enough! You have one more day to get this right. If you don’t sell a lot more tomorrow, you’re fired.”
When the man came back to the office at the end of the next day, he was again asked how he did. “I sold 1500 toothbrushes!” he announced.
“Oh my God!” said the hiring manager. “That’s amazing. It’s more than anyone has ever sold in one day before. How did you do it?”
“Well,” he began, “I went to a grocery store and set up a table outside with some chips and some dip. And I asked people to try them. They would taste it and say, ‘This dip tastes like s-h.it!”
And I would say, “It is! Would you like to buy a toothbrush?”
LOL!! A dumb joke is still a good funny joke!
Man Gets Fired from Job at Walmart
After getting my new job as a Walmart greeter, a great find for many retirees, I lasted less than a day.
About two hours into my first day on the job, a very loud, mean-acting woman walked into the store with her two children and yelled obscenities at them all the way through the entrance.
I said pleasantly, “Good morning, and welcome to Wal-Mart. You have nice children there. Are they twins?”
The woman stopped yelling long enough to say, “Damn no, they’re not twins. The older 9 and the other 7. Why the hell do you think they’re twins? are you blind or stupid?”
So I said, “I’m not blind or stupid Ma’am, I just couldn’t believe someone s-lept with you twice. Have a nice day and thank you for shopping at Walmart.”
My supervisor said I probably wasn’t cut out for this line of work.
LOL!!
