Who Is Not Qualified For His Job?
The sales manager was complaing to a colleague about one of his salesmen.”George is so forgetful that it’s a wonder he can sell anything. I asked him to pick up some sandwiches on 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 George,”You’ll never guess what happened!” He shouted.”At lunch, I met Fred Brown, the president of a fortune 500 company. He hadn’t bought anything from us in ten years. Well, we got to talking, and he gave me an order worth 15 million dollars!”
“See!” said the sales manager. “I told you he’d forget the sandwiches.”
谁对工作不称职?
销售部的经理向一个同事抱怨他手下的一个销售员。“乔治的记性太差了,他要是能卖出什么东西那才是奇迹呢。我让他吃过午饭后给我捎个三明治回来,我猜他八成是连要回来都给忘掉了”
就在这时,乔治推门走了进来。“你肯定猜不出刚才发生了什么事!”他大声喊着,“吃午饭时,我遇上了佛雷德·布朗,就是那个幸运500公司的总裁。他已经10年没从我们这里买过东西了。但是,在我们谈过之后,他向我们订购了价值1500万美元的货物!”
“你瞧,”销售经理说,“我说过他会忘记买三明治的。”
