For instance, in this case, it was peach jam; offer other types of jam like pineapple jam, guava, apricot jam, and so on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Next, came in another lady who asked for toilet paper, and Joe politely replied, \u201cI am sorry, ma\u2019am, we do not have any toilet paper right now, but you could try some Carbon Paper or Sand Paper!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>===============================================<br \/>\nTwo salesmen were going door to door, and knocked on the door of a woman who was not happy to see them.<br \/>\nShe told them in certain terms that she did not want to hear their offer and slammed the door in their faces.<\/p>\n<p>To her surprise, however, the door did not close and, in fact, bounced back open.<\/p>\n<p>She tried again, really put her back into it, and slammed the door again with the same result \u2014 the door bounced back open.<\/p>\n<p>Convinced, these rude people were sticking their foot in the door, she reared back to give it a slam that would teach them a lesson, when one of them said:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMa\u2019am, before you do that again, you need to move your cat.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>===============================================<br \/>\nA little old Texas lady answered a knock on the door one day, only to be confronted by a well-dressed young man carrying a vacuum cleaner.<br \/>\n\u201cGood morning,\u201d said the young man, \u201cIf I could take a couple of minutes of your time, I would like to demonstrate the very latest in high-powered vacuum cleaners, straight from California.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGo away!\u201d said the old lady, \u201cI haven\u2019t got any money to spend on things like that!\u201d and she proceeded to close the door.<\/p>\n<p>Quick as a flash, the young man wedged his foot in the door and pushed it wide open.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t be too hasty!\u201d he said. \u201cAt least wait until you\u2019ve seen my demonstration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And with that, he emptied a bucket of horse manure onto her hallway carpet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf this vacuum cleaner doesn\u2019t remove all traces of this horse manure from your carpet, Madam, I will personally eat the remainder, cross my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The old lady stepped back and said, \u201cWait here while I go get a spoon.
