A young Irish guy moves to Sydney and goes to a big department store looking for a job.
The manager asks, "Do you have any sales experience?"
The kid answers, "Yeah, I was a salesman back home".
Well, the manager liked the kid, so he gave him the job.
His first day on the job was rough but he got through it. After the store was locked up, the manager came down. "How many sales did you make today?"
The kid says, "One."
The manager groans, "Just one? Our sales people AVERAGE 20 or 30 sales a day. How much was the sale for?"
The Kid replies "$101,237.64".
The manager exclaims "$101,237.64? What did you sell him?"
The Kid "First i sold him a small fish hook, Then i sold him a medium 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 unique twin engined 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 the 4 x 4 Pajero".
The Manager says, " You mean a guy came in here to buy a fish hook and you sold him a boat and a truck?!".
The kid replies, " No no no, He came in here to buy a box of Tampons for his wife and I said, "Well since your weekends f**ked, you might as well go fishing".
