Is'nt he clever?...?

A little boy went into a drug store, reached for a soda carton and pulled it over to the telephone. He climbed onto the carton so that he could reach the buttons on the phone and proceeded to punch in seven digits. The store owner listened to the following conversation.

The boy asked, "Lady, Can you give me the job of cutting your lawn?"

The woman replied, "I already have someone to cut my lawn."

"Lady, I will cut your lawn for half the price of the person who cuts your lawn now."

The woman responded that she was very satisfied with the person who was presently cutting her lawn.

The little boy found more perseverance and offered, "Lady, I'll even sweep your curb and your sidewalk, so on Sunday you will have the prettiest lawn in all of North Palm Beach, Florida."

Again the woman answered in the negative. With a smile on his face, the little boy replaced the receiver.
3 hours ago - 3 days left to answer.
Additional Details
3 hours ago

The druggist, who was listening to a! ll this, walked over to the boy and said,"Son... I like your attitude, I like that positive spirit and would like to offer you a job."

The little boy replied, "No thanks:) I was just checking on the job I already have!"

that little boy is pretty good, but what if she DID offer him the job... and at half price? then he would get totally ripped off!

lol smart little boy =P

But words of adivce, when you copy someone's joke, try to keep out "Additional Details" and "3 hours ago" lol

The little boy was just a wee bit paranoid wasn't he if he had to call and make sure his client wasn't going to pick someone who he made sound better than him.

he sure is darn clever!! lol...the little man's just checking to see if nobody would ever get his job lol...a job well done for him!! i'd like to have him cut my lawn anytime!!=]
