A man walked into the produce section of his local Tesco supermarket and

asked to buy half a head of lettuce. The boy working in that department told

him that they only sold whole heads of lettuce. The man was insistent that

the boy ask his manager about the matter.

Walking into the back room, the boy said to his manager, "Some tosser wants

to buy a half a head of lettuce." As he finished his sentence, he turned to

find the man standing right behind him, so he added, "and this gentleman

kindly offered to buy the other half."

The manager approved the deal and the man went on his way. Later the

manager found the boy and said "I was impressed with the way you got

yourself out of that situation earlier. We like people who think on their

feet here. Where are you from, son?"

"Essex, sir," the boy replied. "Well, why did you leave Essex," the manager

asked.

The boy said, "Sir, there's nothing but whores and football players there..

"Really?" said the manager, "My wife's from Essex."

The boy replied, "Really? Who does she play for?"
