Sandwich Forgetter
The sales manager was complaining to a colleague about one of his salesmen.
“Bruce is so forgetful that it’s a wonder he can sell anything. I asked him to
pick up some sandwiches no his way back from lunch, but I’m not sure he’ll even
remember to come back.”
Just then, the door flew open and in came Bruce. “You’ll never guess what
happened!” he shouted. “At lunch, I met Jack Boersma, the president of a Fortune
500 company. He hadn’t bought anything from us in 10 years. Well, we go to
talking, and he gave me an order worth 20 million dollars!”
“See?” said the sales manager. “I told you he’d forget the sandwiches.”
