A man with a _winking problem_ is applying for a position as
a sales representative for a large firm.*
The interviewer looks over his papers and says, "This is
phenomenal. You've graduated from the best schools;**your
recommendations are wonderful, and your experience is
unparalleled. *
Normally, we'd hire you without a second thought.
However, a sales representative has a highly visible position,
and we're afraid that your constant winking will scare off
potential customers.**I'm sorry.... we can't hire you."
But wait," the man says. "If I take two aspirin, I'll stop
winking!"
Really? Great! Show me!"
So the applicant reaches into his jacket pocket and begins
pulling out all sorts of condoms: red condoms,**blue condoms,
ribbed condoms, flavored condoms; finally, at the bottom, he
finds a packet of aspirin.
He tears it open, swallows the pills, and stops winking.
Well," said the interviewer, "that's all well and good, but
this is a respectable company **and we will not have our
employees womanizing all over the country!"
"Womanizing? What do you mean? I'm a happily married man!"
"Well then, how do you explain all these condoms?"
"Oh, that," he sighed. "Have you ever walked into a
pharmacy, winking, and asked for aspirin?"*
