Conversaţii scurte în limba engleză

John applied for a job as an insurance salesman. Where the form requested „prior experience,” he wrote „lifeguard.” That was it. Nothing else.

„We’re looking for someone who can not only sell insurance, but who can sell himself as well,” said the hiring manager. „How does working as a lifeguard pertain to salesmanship?”

John replied, „I couldn’t swim.”

He got the job.
