A German, a Russian and an American salesman are traveling in the Amazon to open up a new territory for their respective firms. They get captured by a jungle tribe native to the region.
The head of the tribe says to the German, "What do you want on your back for your whipping?"
The German responds. "I will take oil!"
So the Amazons put oil on his back and a large Amazon whips him ten times. When he is finished the German has these huge welts on his back, and he can barely move. The Amazons haul the German away.
The head of the tribe says to the Russian, "What do you want on your back for your whipping?"
The Russian responds. "I will take mud!"
So the Amazons put mud on his back and a large Amazon whips him ten times. When he is finished the Russian has these huge welts on his back, but he had taken his ten lashing without a flinch. The Amazons begin to haul the Russian away.
The head of the tribe says to the American, "What do you want on your back for your whipping?"
The American responds. "I will take the Russian!"
Moral of the story. Always be prepared to think outside of the box. Doing so will allow you to often beat your competition and might even save your own skin someday!
