The clerk tries to ignore him in the hope he will go away but eventuallly realises the man isn't going to leave, so the clerk asks "may I help you sir" The man replies "Yeah, I need a potato clock" The clerk says "I'm sorry sir, I don't think I heard you properly. What were you after?" "I said I need a potato clock" "sorry sir, I don't understand...

"Thats right, a potato clock" "Sir, we have digital clocks, alarm clocks, grandfather clocks, solar clocks, but i dont know of any potato clocks" The man says "I've never heard of one either but my wife says i need one!" "What do you need a potato clock for sir?" "I need it for my new job" "How do you use a potato clock for a job sir?" "I'm not sure. My wife told me if I dont get a job, she's gonna leave me, so i got a job. Now she tells me that for me to get to my new job on time, i need to get a potato clock!" "You need to get a potato clock?"
