Sales Tweet #15 Ernest Seller gets no respect. When he was a boy his parents hid his lemonade stand.

 

Ernest Seller is a natural born salesman. He believes sales people are born - not taught. But, we won't dwell on that now. Now, Ernest is a first-born child and we know the direction that takes us. Yes, Ernest's parents suffered long. Nothing had prepared them for a little human being of the likes of Ernest, a natural-born salesman. So, when, just after he had learned to walk and talk, Ernest set up a lemonade stand and took on the role of producer, barker, pourer, and cashier his poor parents were tested to the limit. It started with little things like neighbours claiming the lemonade had been watered down. In fairness to Ernest, that is just an allegation - it was never proven. But, when Ernest put up detour signs and had the neighbours' cars doing the drive-thru thing over their front yard...well Ernest's parents had to draw a line.
