A market researcher was doing door-to-door surveys when he was greeted by a beautiful young housewife. He was gathering data on petroleum jelly—specifically, who was using it and why.
“Hello,” he began, “I’m conducting research for a petroleum jelly manufacturer. Have you ever used this product?”
“Oh, yes,” she replied smoothly. “My husband and I use it in the bedroom all the time.”
The researcher blushed, momentarily stunned by her blunt honesty, but quickly adjusted his glasses and got his pen ready.
“Wow… I admire your openness,” he stammered. “Could you tell me exactly how you apply it?”
“Sure,” she smiled. “We rub it all over the outside doorknob so the kids can’t get a grip.”
