A storekeeper heard his sales assistant say to a customer, “No, we haven’t had any for weeks and I doubt if we will get any soon.”

After she had left, he said to his assistant, “Never - I repeat – never say we don’t have something. Say we’ve ordered it and it will be arriving soon. Besides, what was she enquiring about?”
“Rain,” answered the assistant
