Selling insurance Vs Being a lifeguard

　　卖保险 Vs 当救生员

　　My buddy applied for a job as an insurance salesperson. Where the form requested "prior experience," he wrote "lifeguard." That was it. Nothing else. "We're looking for someone who can not only sell insurance, but who can sell himself," said the hiring manager. "How does working as a lifeguard pertain to salesmanship?""I couldn't swim," my pal replied. He got the job.

　　我的1个哥们去应聘当保险销售员，申请表上有1栏要填写“以往工作经验”，他就写“救生员”。 没别的。就这样。 “我们要找的人不但能卖保险，而且能自我推销”，人事经理说，“那当救生员与当销售人员又有什么关系呢？”“我不会游泳”，我哥们回答。他被录取了。
