A Labor Day Capitalist Success Story

 

Obama stated just the other day in his MLK Day speech that he has seen very few success stories where a person...a regular Joe...has been able to bring himself up and improve his station in life. I beg to differ, as I have seen many and been witness to my own successes (and failures) over the years.

Now on Labor Day (a Communist holiday) the "workers must unite" again to defeat the greedy "capitalist pigs" running our fast food industry.

 

 

As we see this SEIU staged event taking place, I would remind everyone that success is possible if you apply yourself and your God given gifts...I found one great example just the other day...

 

A Young Guy From NJ Moves To FL

He goes to a big "everything under one roof" store looking for a sales job.

The Manager says, "Do you have any sales experience?"

The kid says, "Yeah. I was a salesman back in New Jersey."

Well, the boss liked the kid and 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. "How many customers bought something from you today?"
 
The kid says, "One."

The boss says, "Just one? Our sales people average 20 to 30 customers a day. How much was the sale for?"

The kid says "$101,237.65."

The boss says "$101,237.65? What the heck did you sell?"
 
The kid says, "First, I sold him a small fishhook. Then I sold him a medium fishhook. Then I sold him a larger fishhook.
 
"Then I sold him a new fishing rod. 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 fishhook, 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.'"
