A man walked into the produce section of a supermarket, and asked
to buy half a head of lettuce. The boy working in that department told him
that they only sold whole heads of lettuce. The man was
insistent that the boy ask his manager about the matter. Walking into the
back room, the boy said to the manager, "Some asshole wants to buy half a
head of lettuce." As he finished his sentence, he turned to find the man
standing right behind him, so he added, "And this gentleman has kindly
offered to buy the other half. ''
> The manager approved the deal, and the man went on his way.
Later the manager said to the boy, "I was impressed with the way you got
yourself out of that situation earlier. We like people who think on their
feet here. Where are you from,son?" "Texas,sir," the boy
replied. "Well, why did you leave Texas?" the manager asked. The boy said,
"Sir, there's nothing in Texas but prostitutes and football players."
> "Really?" said the manager. "My wife is from Texas." "No
****??" replied the boy. "Who'd she play for?
