What my father said.

What my father said. 

My father was an old fashioned traveling salesman. 

When he went into someone’s office, 
they would always ask about his business. 

To which he would reply:

 “Business is like sex, 
when it’s good, 
it’s very good 
but when it’s bad,
 it’s still good.”


He would also say 
when business is bad,
don’t get depressed,
get busy.
