A New Shirt

While I was working in the men's section of a department store, a woman asked me to help her choose a white dress shirt for her husband.

When I asked about his size, the woman looked stumped at first, then her face brightened. She held up her hands, forming a circle with her forefingers and thumbs.

"I don't know his size," she said, "but my hands fit PERFECTLY around his neck."

I had a similar experience during college working in a department store. Same scenario: a middle aged woman asked me for help and while we were going thru various shirt/tie combinations a co-worker, very attractive 20 year old woman, came over and said she really liked this one set we had picked out. The woman looked at my co-worker then at the shirt/tie and said “We’ll, we’re not buying these!”

Well, while we are on a kick of shopping humour...

A man was waiting in the store for his wife who was trying on lingerie.
A saleslady came up to the man and asked, "Can I help you with anything?"
The man was very uncomfortable and nervous being there, so he blurted out, "Ahh... umm... do you have anything for men?"
The saleslady smiled and said, "Sir, everything here is for men!"

Was the dress shirt was for her husband's viewing? How did he die?

She was probably the top sales person.

When I first read this, I thought it was thumb and forefinger and thought this is going to be interesting. Then I saw it was "thumbs" and "forefingers" plural. Still as it is, it sounds like the guy has a neck like stack of dimes.

I put on a new shirt today and now I have two shirts.
