Thread: Poor going from my local gunshop I thought!

bit off topic but...

There once was two salesmen in a hardwhare shop ,the old hand says to the young bloke he has to learn to "up sell".

What do ya mean ask the young bloke? here watch and learn says the old hand...

He walks up to a bloke looking at some fish hooks ... and with some blah de blah the bloke walks out with fish hooks, bait ,nylon and sinkers.

See says the old hand... saw he was looking at hooks , so I knew he was going fishing so I advised him of that other gear he would need and hay presto more gear sold... "Hmm says the young hand got ya"!!

well a couple hours pass and the old hand comes wandering back from smoko to see the young hand helping a bloke hook up a brand new boat, filled with new rods and gear for africa.

he's lost for words!! so when the young bloke comes back into the store he just has to ask, "how did you manage that"??

Well says the young hand.... "I did what you said"

"Eh" say the old hand
....I saw that bloke standing around while his lady was looking at femine products , so I wandered ..real casual like you said... and said "well looks like your weekends screwed mate you should go fishing and it all went from there".
