    well, YESTERDAY was friday, heres your joke anyway
    fish hook salesman




    A young guy from Missouri moves to Florida and goes to a big "everything
    under the 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 Missouri." 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 to 30 sales a
    day!

    How much was the sale for? The kid says " $101,237.64." The boss says,
    "$101,237.64? 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
    coast, so I told him he was gonna need a boat, so we went down to the boat
    department and I sold him that twin engine 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 that 4x4 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 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!!!"
