.....................The Toothbrush Salesman.........................
A man is looking through the classified ads for a job. He notices an
advertisement for a toothbrush salesman and figured that couldn't
such a bad job. So, he calls in, he goes in and they hire him.
The next day, he heads out to a neighborhood to make some sales.
Five hours later he comes home and says, "Man, I only sold one
toothbrush. That's not enough."
So the next day he goes to a richer neighborhood, thinking maybe
those people would buy more toothbrushes. He ends up selling two
toothbrushes. He decides to go to his boss for advice.
His boss tells him, "Look, you're a great guy and all, but you gotta
come up with a gimmick or something."
The salesman thinks long and hard about it and, later that night, he
finally comes up with a brainstorm.
The very next day, he sets up a booth near the subway with a sign
that says: Free Chips and Dip.
A guy walks over and puts the chip in the dip and says, "This tastes
like horseshlt."
And the salesman replied, "Yeah, it is. Wanna buy a toothbrush?
