A woman calls an import parts warehouse and asks for a 28-ounce
water pump.
"A what?" asks the confused parts guy.
"My husband says he needs a 28-ounce water pump."
"A 28-ounce water pump? What kind of car does it fit?"
"A Datsun."
As the parts guy writes down "Datsun, 28 oz. water pump" the
light in his head goes on. "Oh yes ma'am. We've got 28-ounce
water pumps. We have 24-ounce and 26-ounce water pumps too."
"Finally," she says. "You're the first place I've called that knew
what I was talking about."
"Yes ma'am. That's because we're a full service parts warehouse.
It's our job to have the parts you need, like a 28-ounce water
pump," he says, smiling, as he jots down on the order invoice:
