Title: Long stand
Post by: loulou on October 22, 2007, 09:35:29 pm
A young boy working for the council walks into my local sweet shop today and asked for a long stand. The shopkeeper did not understand and asked the boy what a long stand was. The boy said he had been told it was a form of licqourice and he was not to go back to work without having a long stand.lol
 







Have you ever been caught out by a practical joke? I once seen someone in Maxwells asking for a left handed screwdriver and when I was nursing we were always sending the young male students to the pharmacy for some fallopian tubes.

What about a tin of tartan paint?
The old lady that goes into the sex shop and says "Ooh!
 I'll have that big tartan dildo at the end of the counter."
The assistant replies " Tartan bloody dildo?! That's my Thermos flask!"

Another good one is to send someone to a hardware shop for a long weight.

Yes, when I was in retail management many moons ago we sent new butcher's boys out for long weights and rubber sky hooks!

When I was at uni everyone in our accommodation got very official-looking letters saying there was a fault with the vacuum cleaners and we had to take them to the office to be serviced. We couldn't be arsed in our house, but then read in the student paper a few days later that the whole thing was a hoax. I supposed it should have tipped us off that the Services Manager's name was U.B. Hadwell!
