Laughter - the best medicine

There was a young Dublin lad who worked in the produce section of a supermarket. A man came in and asked to buy half a head of lettuce. The lad told him that they only sold whole heads of lettuce, but the man replied that he did not need a whole head, only half. The lad explained that he would have to ask the manager and so he walked into the back room and said, "There is some dickhead out there who wants to buy only a half a head of lettuce." As he finished saying this, he turned around to find the man standing right behind him, so he quickly added, "And this gentleman wants to buy the other half." The manager approved the request and the man went on his way. Later on the manager said to the lad, "You almost got yourself into a lot of trouble earlier, but I must say I was impressed with the way you got out of it. You think on your feet and we like that around here. What branch this supermarket chain did you work in before you came here?" The lad replied, "The Kerry store, sir." "Oh, really? Why did you leave Kerry?" inquired the manager. The Dublin lad replied, "They're all just hoors, sluts and football players down there." "My wife is from Kerry", exclaimed the manager. The lad instantly
replied, "Really! What team did she play for?"
