weegie in LUNDIN
A Young Glasgow lad moved to London and went to Harrods looking for
a job.
'Do you have any sales experience?' asked the manager.
'Oh Aye; uff dunnabitta sales stuff back up eh road anat, ah'eh barras anat, know?', nodded the young weegie.
The manager liked the lad, so he gave him the job. The young Scot's first day was challenging and busy, but he got through it. After the store
was locked up, the manager came down to see how he was settling in.
'So... how many sales did you make today'? He smiled at the boy.
The weegie said: 'Jist the wan'.
The manager was immediately disappointed. 'Wh-a-a-t? Just one? Harrods's sales people average 20 or 30 sales a day! Dear me! Oh well, how
much was the sale for, anyway'?
£101,237.64' said the lad.
The Harrods manager choked. 'Blimey... One hundred and one thousand, two hundred and thirty-seven pounds and sixty four pence! What in hell did
you sell him?'
'Well, first ah selt him a wee fish hook, then a medium fish hook, and then ah selt him a new fishing rod. Then ah asked him where he was
gawin' fishing, and he said doon at the coast, so I telt him he'd need a boat. So we went doon tae the boat department and Ah selt him
thon twin-engined Power Cat... then he said he didnae think his wee Honda Civic could pull it, so Ah took him doon tae car sales and Ah selt him a
dinky wee 4x4 Suzuki...'.
The manager was now incredulous. 'Wait a minute; you mean to tell me....a guy came in here to buy a small fish hook but you sold him a boat AND
a four by four?'
'Naw naw, big man... he came in tae buy a box of tampons furries missus and Ah said.........
"Well pal, seein' as how yer weekend's f**ked, ye might as well go fishin'..."'.
