Joe Supersalesman worked at a men's clothing store. One day his manager noticed that Joe's hand was wrapped in a heavy bandage.
"What happened to your hand, Joe?"
"My hand? Oh, it's nothing! But guess what, I sold that ugly pink suit you wanted to get rid of!"
"Do you mean that horrible pink double-breasted thing?" the manager asked.
"That's right!"
"Outstanding!" the manager said, patting Joe on the back. "I thought we'd never get rid of it! That suit looked funnier than a clown suit! That is why I doubled the commission on it....congratulations! But Joe, why is your hand bandaged?"
"It's nothing, really," Joe replied, "it is just that after I sold my customer on that suit, as I took him to the cash register, his guide dog bit me."
