They say the following joke is packed with cheerfulness, so let’s give it a go. This one’s entitled “Lucky Lunch Break.”
A sales manager was complaining to a colleague about one of his salesmen:
“Man, Wilson is so forgetful that it’s a wonder he can sell anything. I asked him to pick up some vegan sandwiches on his way back from lunch, but I’m doubtful he’ll even remember to come back, let alone bring the food.”
Just then, the door flew open and in came Wilson.
“You’ll never guess what happened! At lunch, I met Collin Salvatore, the president of a Fortune 500 company. He hasn’t purchased anything from us in 10 years. Well, we got to talking, and he gave me an order worth 15 million dollars!”
“See? I told you he’d forget the vegan sandwiches.”
