    A young guy from North Dakota moves to Florida and goes to a big "everything under one roof" department store looking for a job.

    The Manager says, "Do you have any sales experience?" The kid says "Yeah. I was a vacuum salesman back in North Dakota."

    Well, the boss was unsure, but he liked the kid and figured he'd give him a shot, so he gave him the job.

    "You start tomorrow. I'll come down after we close and see how you did."

    His first day on the job was rough, but he got through it. After the store was locked up, the boss came down to the sales floor.

    "How many customers bought something from you today?" The kid frowns and looks at the floor and mutters, "One". The boss says "Just one?!!? Our sales people average sales to 20 to 30 customers a day.

    That will have to change, and soon, if you'd like to continue your employment here. We have very strict standards for our sales force here in Florida. One sale a day might have been acceptable in North Dakota, but you're not on the farm anymore, son."
    The kid took his beating, but continued to look at his shoes, so the boss felt kinda bad for chewing him out on his first day. He asked (semi-sarcastically), "So, how much was your one sale for?"
    The kid looks up at his boss and says "$101,237.65".

    The boss, astonished, says $101,237.65?!? What the heck did you sell?"

    The kid says, "Well, first, I sold him some new fish hooks. Then I sold him a new fishing rod to go with his new hooks. Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast, so I told him he was going to need a boat, so we went down to the boat department and I sold him a twin engine Chris Craft. Then he said he didn't think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him down to the automotive department and sold him that 4x4 Expedition."

    The boss said "A guy came in here to buy a fish hook and you sold him a boat and a TRUCK!?"
    The kid said "No, the guy came in here to buy tampons for his wife, and I said, 'Dude, your weekend's shot, you should go fishing

    Cute Duck, as a duckling and as an adult. Don't miss the bit with the hairdryer!

    FF, that duck getting vacuumed is funny.

    We had a cat that loved to be vacuumed, he would come running as soon as he heard it start up. Even the big old shop vac, couldn't get enough! He was scared of it, until one time (this was years ago before proper flea treatments) he got a bad flea infestation & in my frustration, I grabbed him & started to try to vacuum some of them off. He struggled to get away & then within a minute he relaxed and realized it felt really good!

    After that, I never vacuumed alone again... GG

    Wonderful story GG. Wish Arthur was like that. He is no longer totally psycho around the vacuum, but certainly not relaxed...

    Squeakers will come up to sniff the vacuum while it's on. Doesn't care about it at all. He's pretty chill about most things. I think our foster cat, Rusty, has the normal cat reaction so I keep the door closed if I'm vacuuming where he can see it.

    Boyfriend Pierre and I did a Christmas pub crawl with friends over the weekend. It was great fun. I also had a consult with a tattoo artist who does mastectomy tattoos. I have my appointment for floral tattoos across my chest on February 12th! Happy
