    A young guy from Nebraska moves to Florida 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 in Omaha.”

    Well, the boss likes the kid and gives him the job. “You start tomorrow. I’ll come down after we close and see how you did.”

    His first day on the job is rough, but he gets through it. After the store is locked up, the boss comes down. “How many customers bought something from you today?”

    The kid says, “One”.

    The boss says, “Just one? Our sales people average 20 to 30 customers a day. How much was the sale for?”

    The kid says, “$101,237.65”.

    The boss says, “$101,237.65? What the heck did you sell?”

    The kid says, “First, I sold him a small fish hook. Then I sold him a medium fishhook. Then I sold him a larger fishhook. Then I sold him a new fishing rod. Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast, so I told him he was going to need a boat, so we went down to the boat department and I sold him a twin engine Chris Craft. Then he said he didn’t think his Honda Civ ic would pull it, so I took him down to the automotive department and sold him that 4×4 Expedition.”

    The boss said, “A guy came in here to buy a fish hook and you sold him a BOAT and a TRUCK?”

    The kid said, “No, the guy came in here to buy Tampons for his wife,
    and I said, ‘Dude, your weekend’s shot, you should go fishing…”

    A joke my son Nate just told me today: A guy is playing with his new Ugly Stick fishing rod in the kitchen and his wife walks in and says: you aint going fishing so get that idea out of your head. She grabs the rod and sticks it into their kitchen garbage can and you can hear alot of sounds like its bending and breaking and being ground up as she shoves it all inside the can. Then she turns to him, smiles, and walks out of the kitchen. He goes over to the kitchen garbage can, reaches in, and pulls out the rod which still looks just like new, smiles, and walks out of the house to go fishing.

    [in this story his weekend isn’t shot. ]

    Thanks, Bill

    People never take fishing seriously….until they are married.
