A hare-lip goes to his first sales meeting after getting a job selling toothbrushes:
The sales manager asks salesman number one, "How many toothbrushes did you sell this week?"
He responds, "I sold 300 toothbrushes!"
"Very good! Salesman number two, how many did you sell?"
Salesman number two responds, "I sold 400 toothbrushes last week!"
The sales manager asks our hare-lipped buddy, "How many toothbrushes did you sell last week?"
"I diwn't sew any tootbwushes at awl."
"You'll have to do better than that. Meeting is over."
Next weeks sales meeting goes the same. Salesman number one sells 400 toothbrushes-salesman number two sells 400 toothbrushes-our hare-lipped buddy confesses not to have sold any toothbrushes.
"Look here, you'll have to do better than this. You have to go out and find some angle and start selling toothbrushes, or we'll have to let you go."
At next weeks sales meeting, salesman number one announces, "I sold 300 toothbrushes!" Salesman number two, "I sold 400 toothbrushes last week!"
The manager asks the hare-lip, " And how many toothbrushes did you sell last week?"
"I sood 10,000 tootbwushes wast week."
"That's amazing, how did you sell so many!?"
"Yew toad me to find an angle, so I went to the airport and set up a chips and dip stand. Pweople would get off the plane and take a chip and dip it the dip and take a bite. They say, 'Ugh, that tastes like shit!!' and I say 'It is, want to buy a tootbwush?"
