    Now This Is a Salesman!!

    A young Aussie lad moved to London and went to Harrods looking for a job.
    The manager asked "Do you have any sales experience?"
    The young man answered "Yeah, I was a salesman back home in Dubbo."
    The manager liked the Aussie so he gave him the job. His first day on the job was challenging and busy, but he got through it very well he thought.
    After the store was locked up, the manager came down and asked, "OK, so how many sales did you make today?"
    The Aussie said "One!"
    The manager groaned and continued, "Just one? Our sales people average 20 or 30 sales a day. How much was the sale for?"
    "124,237.64 Pounds"
    The manager choked and exclaimed 124,237.64 POUNDS!! What the hell did you sell him?"
    "Well, first I sold him a small fish hook, then a medium fish hook,and 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 would need a boat, so we went down to the boat department and I sold him that twin-engined Power Cat.
    Then he said he didn't think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him down to car sales and I sold him the 4 x 4 Suzuki".
    The manager, incredulous, said "You mean to tell me....a guy came in
    here to buy a fish hook and you sold him a boat and a 4x4?"
    "No no no......he came in here to buy a box of tampons for his lady friend and I said......... 'Well, since your weekend's buggered, you might as well go fishing."

    Think again! Remember when they used to shut down the store for the Queen's monthly shopping excursions??!! Only the best for royalty.

    LOL, I've been to Harrods and trust me you can not only buy Tampons (if you were so inclined) but you could buy just about everything else on that list. i mean they have custom golf carts to personal water crafts to leather wrapped dumbells with gold accents. The place is nuts and flooded with the richest of the rich.

    Funny post BTW

    Haha, just messing around. I lived in London for six years and my parents still live there. Will be happy if I never have to go into Harrods again. Place is a right zoo.
