As part of his Monday morning trip to the supermarket, the
salesman went to the meat counter to buy a package of boneless chicken
breasts for his first barbecue of the year. But he was disappointed
because they all appeared to be to small. So he complained to the
butcher and she promised to pack up some and to have them ready for him
by the time he had finished his shopping.
The salesman continued on with the rest of his shopping until a few aisles on, he heard her voice boom out over the loudspeakers of the store public address system: "Will the gentleman who was looking for bigger breasts please meet me at the back of the store at the butcher counter."
Moral of the story. True sales professionals always make the most of what's readily available. They've found through experience however, that simply asking for more, without first proving value, rarely works out well.
