OT: Friday Fun - Scottish Joke

A young Glasgow lad moved to London and went to Harrods looking for a job.

"Do you have any sales experience?" asked the manager. "The famous Glasga
Barras mate", nodded the young weegie.

The manager liked the lad, so he gave him the job.

The young Scot's first day was challenging and busy, but he got through it.
After the store was locked up, the manager came down to see how he was
settling in.

"So... how many customers did you attend to today?", he smiled at the boy.
The weegie said: "Jist the wan."

The manager was immediately disappointed. "What? Just one? Harrods' sales
people average 20 or 30 sales a day! Dear me! Oh well, how much was the sale
for anyway?"

"£101,237.64" said the lad.

The Harrods manager choked. "Blimey... One hundred and one thousand, two
hundred and thirty-seven pounds and sixty four pence! What in hell did you
sell him?"

"Well, first ah selt him a wee fish hook, then a medium fish hook, and then
ah selt him a new fishing rod. Then ah asked him where he was gawn' fishing,
and he said doon the coast, so ah telt him he would need a boat.

We went doon to the boat department and ah selt him that twin-engined
powerCat... then he said he didn't think his wee Honda Civic could pull it,
so ah took him down to car sales and ah selt him a toty 4x4 Suzuki......."

The manager was now incredulous. "Wait a minute. You mean to tell me a man
came in here to buy a small fish hook but you sold him a boat AND a
four-by-four ... "

"Naw naw, big man... he came in tay buy a box of tampons fur 'is missus and
ah said........."Well pal, seein' as how yer weekend's f**ked, ye might as
well go fishing..."'
