Little Jumpus Options

[poly]

The kids filed back into class Monday morning. They were very excited. Their weekend assignment was to sell something, then give a talk on productive salesmanship.
|
| Little Sally led off: "I sold girl scout cookies and I made $30," she said proudly, "My sales approach was to appeal to the customer's civil spirit and I credit that approach for my obvious success."
|
| "Very good," said the teacher.
|
| Little Jenny was next:
|
| "I sold magazines," she said, "I made $45 and I explained to everyone that magazines would keep them up on current events."
|
| "Very good, Jenny," said the teacher..
|
| Eventually, it was Little jumpus's turn.
|
| The teacher held her breath ...
|
| Little Jumpus walked to the front of the classroom and dumped a box full of cash on the teacher's desk. "$2,467," he said.
|
| "$2,467!" cried the teacher, "What in the world were you selling?"
|
| "Toothbrushes," said Little Jumpus
|
| "Toothbrushes!" echoed the teacher, "How could you possibly sell enough tooth brushes to make that much money?"
|
| "I found the busiest corner in town," said Little Jumpus, "I set up a Dip & Chip stand and gave everybody who walked by a free sample."
|
| They all said the same thing, "Hey, this tastes like dog shit!"
|
| Then I would say,"It is dog shit. Wanna buy a toothbrush?"
|
| "I used the governmental approach of giving you something shitty for free, and then making you pay to get the shitty taste out of your mouth."
