“Ryan is so forgetful, “the sales manager complained to his secretary. “It’s a wonder he can sell anything. I asked him to pick me up some sandwiches on his way back from lunch but I’m not sure he’ll even remember to come back. “
Just then the door flew open and bounced Ryan.
“You’ll never guess what happened!” he shouted. “While I was at lunch, I met Old Man Brown, who hasn’t bought anything from us for five years. Well, we got to talking and he gave me a half-million-dollar order!”
“See, “sighed the sales manager to his secretary. “I told you he’d forget the sandwiches. “
