This bloke 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 bloomin' great. You've graduated from the best
colleges and courses. Your recommendations are great, and your
experience is unparalleled. Normally, we'd hire you without a second
thought. But you must realise that a sales rep 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, hold on a sec," he said. "I just have to take two aspirin,
and 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 flirting and
womanizing all over the country!"
"Womanizing? What do ye 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 chemists, winking,
and asked for some aspirin?"
