| A man walks into an insurance office and asks for a job. "Sorry, we don't need anyone..." the manager at the office replied. "You can't afford not to hire me. I can sell anyone, anything, anytime!" "Well, we have two prospects that no one has been able to sell. If you can sell just one, then you have a job." He was gone about two hours and when he returned, he handed them two checks, one for $25,000 and another for $50,000. "How in the world did you do that?" the manager asked. "I told you, I'm the world's best salesman, I can sell anyone, anything, anytime!" "Did you get a urine sample?" the manager asked him. "What's that?" he asked. "Well, if you sell a policy over $20,000, the company requires a urine sample. Now take these two bottles and go back and get urine samples." He was gone about eight hours and the office was about to close, when in he walks with two five-gallon buckets, one in each hand. He put the buckets down, reached in his shirt pocket, took out two bottles of urine, set them on the desk and said, "Here's Mr. Jones' and this one is Mrs. Johnson's." "That's good," the manager said, "but what's in those two buckets?" "Well, I passed by the school house and they were having a state teachers' convention, so I stopped and sold them a group policy!" |
