I Won a Sales Award. Which is Cool. But....

I have only been doing this job since June.

I'm the new guy on the block.

And I won a 'top sales' award this week.  I'm stoked.

A manufacturer rep gave me props for selling the most new stores during a period of time.  I smoked the other sales reps, so he wanted to thank me for my hard efforts.

...by giving me a pair of boxers...

He begins to tell a story about an old business owner who coined the phrase "Farting through silk."  When a salesman is paid on commission and is making a lot of money, he apparently buys nice things like silk underwear (I wouldn't know because I'm making decent money, but not 'silk panties' money...).  If a salesman is selling well, he's "farting through silk" because he's spending money on nice things.

So, in honor of me being the top salesman for this product, I was awarded a pair of silk boxers so I too can fart through silk.

I... was... stunned.  What do you say to a dude who says "thank you for your efforts, here's some drawers..."

But hey, I'll take it.  Because the new guy in town is selling better than the rest.  Like a boss.

Please Share it! :)
