From a Position of Ignorance

Got to get this one in quickly, in between exams.....

A few nights ago our 'door to door charity salesman' came home very pleased with himself having made two sales that day. As he busied himself in the kitchen at 11pm, cooking bacon and eggs, I enquired as to the hours they work. How is it that he doesn't get home until 10.45pm each evening??

"Well, we sell right up until 8pm cause that's how long we're legally allowed to go door to door. Then we don't get back to the Office until about 8.30pm." At this he glanced up and fixed me with a superior and knowing look. "We have to go back and do paperwork and stuff you know. Sales stuff. You wouldn't understand............."

It was all I could do to keep a straight face!
