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  was challenging and busy, but he got through it. 

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?'
'£124,237.64p.' 

The manager choked and exclaimed £124,237.64!! 
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-engine 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  x4


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.'
