Might As Well Go Fishing

[LUFPAN]

A young fellow from Texas moves to California 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 Texas."

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 or 30 sales a
day. You're going to have to improve considerably or look for another
job! How much was the sale for?"

The kid says, "$112,237.64."

The boss says, "$112,237.64 ! 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 lake, so I told him he was gonna need a boat, so we
went down to the boat department and I sold him a new bass boat. 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 new Ford pick-up.
I asked him how long he was going to be out at the lake and after he
said 5 or 6 days I took him down to the RV department and sold him a
slide-in camper for the truck."

The boss said, "A guy came in here to buy a fish hook and you sold him

a boat, a truck and a camper?"

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."

One day a young, strapping young man from Texas walks in to the New York Brooks Brothers store. He's wearing boots, jeans and a cowboy hat, and he tells the young sales girl in the men's department:

"I need to by a brand new, tailored suit, a belt, and some dress shoes."

The young lady who takes measurements starts to measure him. He's three feet across in the shoulder, and stands about 6 foot five with a 34 inch waist. They measure his feet for his shoes, he wears a size 16 E.

The young women, who is quite taken with the young man, says:

"You sure are a big strong man".

He responds:

"Well, everything is bigger in Texas."

The young lady, in full-attack mode now, says:

"Really, everything is bigger? Then can I ask you a really personal question?"

The cowboy responds:

"I already know what you are going to ask, and the answer is 4 inches."

The salesgirl's face falls a little bit and she responds with a lifeless:

"Only 4 inches. Oh."

The cowboy smirks a litte bit, then finishes his sentance;

"Around."
