A man worked into the produce section of his local supermarket and asked to buy 1/2 head of lettuce.
The boy working in the dept told him they only sold whole heads of lettuce. The man was insistent that the boy ask his manager.
The boy walked into the back room and said to his manager. "Some old b$&stard wants a half head of lettuce.
As he finished the sentence, he turned around to find the man standing behind him, so he quickly added" and this gentleman kindly offered to buy the other 1/2.
The manager. Approved the deal and the old man left. Later the manager said to the boy "I'm with the way you got yourself out of that situation before, we like people that can think on their feet, here, where are you from.
"New Zealand , sir " the boy replied.
"Why did you leave New Zealand? The manager asked.
The boy said " Sir, there nothing there but prostitutes and rugby players"
"Is that right? Replied the manager.
My wife's from New Zealand!"
" Really, said the boy, who'd she play for?
