A man walked into the produce section of this local supermarket
and asked to buy a half head of lettuce.
The boy working in that department told him that they only sold
whole heads of lettuce.
The man was insistent that the boy ask his manager about the
matter.
Walking into the back room, the boy said to the manager: \"Some
ass hole wants to buy a half head of lettuce.\" As he finished his
sentence, he turned to find the man standing right behind him, and he quickly
added, \"And this gentleman kindly offered to buy the other half.\"
The manager approved the deal and the man went on his way. Later
the manager said to the boy,
I was impressed with the way you got yourself out of that
situation earlier. We like people who think on their feet here. Where are
you from, son?\"
\"Wisconsin, sir\" the boy replied.
\"Well, why did you leave Wisconsin?\" the manager asked.
The boy said, \"Sir, there\'s nothing up there but whores and
football players!\"
\"Really?\" said the manager. \"My wife is from Wisconsin.\"
\"No shit?\" replied the boy. \"What position did she play?\"
