THIS ONE IS A KILLER!!!
Three tortoises, Mike, Bob and Mark, decide to go on a picnic. Bob packs the picnic basket with beer and sandwiches. The trouble is that the picnic site is ten miles away So, it takes them 10 days to get there. When they get there Bob unpacks the food and beer. "Ok Mike give me the bottle opener" "I didn't bring it" says Mike.. "I thought you packed it" Bob gets worried, He turns to Mark, "Did you bring the bottle opener?" Naturally Mark didn't bring it. So they're stuck 10 miles from home without a bottle opener. Bob and Mark beg Mike to go back for it. But he refuses as he says they will eat all the sandwiches.. After 2 hours, and after they have sworn on their tortoise lives that they will not eat the sandwiches, he finally agrees. So Mike sets off down the road at a steady pace. 20 days pass and he still isn't back & Bob and Mark are starving, but a promise is a promise. Another 5 days and he still isn't back, but a promise is a promise. Finally they can't take it any longer so they take out a sandwich each, and just as they are about to eat it, Mike pops up from behind a rock and shouts, "I KNEW IT'......I'M NOT GOING"!!!.

If you have watched the Indian movie 3 idiots, there is something close to that.

A young guy from North Dakota moves to Florida and goes to a big "everything under one roof" department store looking for a job. The manager says, "Do you have any sales experience?" The kid says, "Yeah. I was a vacuum salesman back in North Dakota." The manager was unsure, but he liked the kid and figured he'd give him a shot, so he gave him the job. "You start tomorrow. I'll come down after we close and see how you did." His first day on the job was rough, but he got through it. After the store was locked up, the manager came down to the sales floor to check on how the kid did on his first day. "How many customers bought something from you today?" The kid frowns and looks at the floor and mutters, "One". The manager replies, "Just one?!!? Our employees average sales to 20 to 30 customers a day. That will have to change and soon if you'd like to continue your employment here. We have very strict standards for our sales force here in Florida. One sale a day might have been acceptable in North Dakota, but you're not on the farm anymore, son." The kid took his beating, but continued to look at his shoes. The manager felt kind of bad for chewing him out on his first day. He asked (semi-sarcastically), "So, how much was your one sale for?" The kid looks up at his manager and says "$101,237.65". The manager, astonished, says, "$141,237.65?!? What the heck did you sell?" The kid says, "Well, first, I sold him some new fish hooks. Then, I sold him a new fishing rod to go with his new hooks. Then, I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast, so I told him he was going to need a boat. We went down to the boat department, and I sold him a twin engine Chris Craft. Then he said he didn't think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him down to the automotive department and sold him a 4x4 Ford Expedition." The manager said "A guy came in here to buy a fish hook, and you sold him a boat and a TRUCK!?" The kid said, "No, the guy came in here to buy tampons for his wife, and I told him, 'Dude, your weekend's boring, you should go fishing. The way I am
