Selling Ability

The boss of a large clothing store was very pleased with his new sales assistant. One day he said, Til be away on business tomorrow, Jackson, and I'm going to set you a real test of your selling abilities. I want you to get rid of that double-breasted check suit — the purple and yellow one with the wide lapels and the flared pants. We've had it on the rack for two years.'

When the boss returned from his business trip, he asked the salesman whether he had managed to sell the suit. 'Yes, sir, I did,' said Jackson. 'I sold it for £150.'

'Excellent!' said the boss. 'Did you have a hard time getting rid of it?'

'Not really,' said the salesman. 'I had no trouble with the customer — but I did have a hell of an argument with his guide dog!'
