Little Johny Gets a Job

Little Johnny was down on his luck and desperately needed a job.

Spotting an ad for a sales position in the newspaper, he thought, "I can learn on the go!" and reached out to the company.

“It’s easy,” said the hiring manager. “Just go door-to-door selling toothbrushes. Simple, right?”

Johnny agreed and hit the streets.

When he returned, he admitted, “I sold one toothbrush.”

The manager sighed, “It's your first day; I'll let it slide. But sell more tomorrow!”

The next day, Johnny managed two sales.

The manager was furious, “Not enough! One more chance.”

Day three, Johnny returned triumphantly, “I sold 1500 toothbrushes!”

The manager was astounded, “How?”

Johnny grinned, “I set up a table at the grocery store with chips and dip. People tasted it, said, 'This dip tastes like shit!'"

"Then I said, 'It is! Want to buy a toothbrush?'"
