MUSICAL GIRL
The young Israeli salesman was posted to the Italian branch of his company. On arrival in
“Remember one thing,” - he said, - “everything here is negotiable. There are no fixed prices and after a little bargaining, you end up paying much less than the original price. The above holds true even with presents you buy your girlfriend. Never give her everything she asks for.”
After a few weeks the two bumped into one another again.
“How did you manage?” - asked the more experienced Israeli.
“Just fine. Your advice was sound and I even found myself a girlfriend.”
“And what did you buy her for the Holidays?”
“I bought her a radio-transistor,” - said the novice.
“What on earth gave you the idea to buy her a radio?” - wondered the other.
“At night, when she bought me to her place, she kept whispering: ‘Piano, Piano!’ but I couldn’t very well buy her a piano, could I?”
