A man with a constant winking problem is applying for a position as a sales representative for a large firm. The interviewer looks over his papers and says, "This is phenomenal. You've graduated from the best schools; your recommendations are wonderful, and your experience is unparalleled. Normally, we'd hire you without a second thought. However, a sales representative has a highly visible position, and we're afraid that your constant winking will scare off potential customers. I'm sorry, but we can't hire you."
"Just wait a moment," the man says. "If I take two aspirin, I'll stop winking."
The interviewer replies, "Really? Great! Show me!"
So the applicant reaches into his jacket pocket and begins pulling out all sorts of condoms: red condoms, blue condoms, ribbed condoms, flavoured condoms. Finally, at the bottom, he finds a packet of aspirin. He tears it open, swallows the pills, and stops winking. "Whoa!" says the interviewer, "that's all well and good, but this is a respectable company, and we will not have our employees womanising all over the country."
"Womanising? What do you mean? I'm a happily married man," replies the applicant.
"Well then, how do you explain all these condoms?" asks the interviewer.
"Oh, that," he sighed. "Have you ever walked into a pharmacy, winking, and asked for aspirin?"
