A young lad moved to London and went to

>
> The manager liked the lad so he gave him the job.
> His first day on the
> job 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 lad 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?"
>
>
