The Heinz factory has been canned as they couldn’t ketchup with expenses.
The tarmac laying company has reached the end of the road.
The bread company has run out of dough.
The clock manufacturer has had to wind down and the owner has gone cuckoo.
The Chinese food company has been taken away.
The shoe shop owner has had to put his foot down and given his staff the boot.
The laundrette has been taken to the cleaners.
The bread bakeries are all toast.
And yes, it’s curtains for theatres.
The Salesman
An Indian left his job and joined salesman’s job in a big department stores in Canada.
Boss :- Do you have any experience?
Indian : Yes a little too much…
On the first day, that Indian worked with full mind.
At 6 pm the Boss :- How many sales did you sell on the first day today?
Indian : Sir I sold 1
Boss : Only 1 sale ??? Usually every salesman working here does 20 to 30 sales daily. Well, tell me how much money did you sell ???
Indian : $93300 dollars.
Boss : What ??? But how did you do it?
Indian : 1 person came and I sold him a small fishing hook.
Then a mazola and then finally sold a big hook. Then I sold him 1 big fishing rods and some fishing gear.
Then I asked him where do you go to catch fish and he said in the coastal area….
Then I said it would need a boat. So I took him down to the boat department and sold him a 20 ft double engine scooner boat.
When he said this boat won’t come in his Volkas Wagon, I took him to the auto mobile section and sold him the new Deluxe 4 x 4 blazer to carry the boat.
And when I asked him where would be going fishing ??? He didn’t plan anything. So I took him to the camping section and sold him a six sleeper camper tent.
And then he said when he took all that he would take $ 200 groceries and 2 cases of beer.
Now the boss took 2 steps back and asked in a very rude way :- You sold all this to the man who came to buy only 1 fish hook???
Indian : “NO, SIR…” He only came to take 1 tablet for the headache…. I explained to him that fishing is the best way to get rid of headaches.
