husband mart
Husband Mart, a store featuring a new concept called human retailing,
opened their first store this past year. In this store, a woman may select
a husband from hundreds of choices, and purchase him. Excitedly, a
young woman went to Husband Mart to select her man. Once in the
lobby she is told the store is comprised of 6 floors, and the men
increase in positive attributes as the shopper ascends each level in the
store. However as with all good things there is a catch, so they explain
the store rules to her. Before she will be allowed to shop, she must
agree to follow the store rules to the letter.
The store rules state that once she arrives on a floor, the woman may
choose any man from that floor, however if she opts to go to a higher
floor instead she cannot go back down to any other floor again. She
may only visit each floor once and can only go back downstairs to the
lobby where she must exit the building. She tells them she understands
and agrees to follow the store rules.
On the first floor there is a small sign which reads: Floor 1 - These men
have jobs. The woman read the sign and said to herself, "Well, that's
better than my last boyfriend, but I wonder what's on the second floor?"
So up she went.
The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love
kids. The woman thought to herself, "That's better, but I wonder what's
on the third floor?" And up she went again.
The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love kids and
are extremely good looking. "Hmmm, even better," she said, "but I
wonder what's on the fourth floor?" Up she went yet again.
The fourth floor sign reads: Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love kids,
are extremely good looking and help with the housework. "Wow!"
exclaimed the woman, "very tempting, but there must be even better
guys on the fifth floor!" And again she headed up another flight.
The fifth floor sign reads: Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love kids, are
extremely good looking, help with the housework and have a strong
romantic streak. "Oh, mercy me! It's so tempting to get off at this
floor....but just think...who must be awaiting me on the top floor?" So
up to the sixth floor she went, as quickly as she could.
The sixth floor has no sign but the woman finds a giant "jumbo tron"
electronic screen which is constantly updating itself that reads: Floor 6 -
You are visitor # 1,456,789,012 to this floor since our store opened.
There are no men or anything else on this floor. This floor exists solely
as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping
Husband Mart, please return to the lobby and have a nice day.
