When the store manager returned from lunch, he noticed his clerk's hand
was bandaged, but before he could ask about the bandage, the clerk said
he had some very good news for him.

"Guess what, sir?" the clerk said. "I finally sold that terrible, ugly
suit we've had so long!"

"Do you mean that repulsive pink-and-blue double-breasted thing?" the
manager asked.

"That's the one!"

"That's great!" the manager cried, "I thought we'd never get rid of that
monstrosity! That had to be the ugliest suit we've ever had! But tell
me. Why is your hand bandaged?"

"Oh," the clerk replied, "after I sold the guy that suit, his guide dog
bit me."
