Did John Bishop start each day at his job with a motivational song? - Would I Lie to You? [CC]

John: "I had a job where we started each day with a motivational song."' Series 4 Episode 8.

[hlly_blue]

I already know this is true even before the video started - mainly because there's a clip of John Bishop on The Graham Norton Show talking about it in the recommended video sidebar

[gkidz]

He was such a terrible liar in his other story that this one, by virtue of him not having utterly collapsed laughing this time, had to be true.

[Ninjastarz]

I knew it was true because I have also had a job selling Kirby vacuum cleaners and they do make you sing a motivational song every morning

[mattcorcoran]

Nobody here's ever done a soul-destroying sales job before? They're all like this of course it's true.

[annettepalmer]

True, because when I worked at Kirby we had to do that same shit. worst job ever.

[BusyBasaz]

I interviewed for a vacuum salesman. The company was cult-like in their manners. As soon as I stepped through the door I see a grown woman on the floor with a baby. She stares at me with intense eyes and says "TIME FOR SUCCESS!". The company was called Success AB if I recall correctly.

[McfcRich]

Woww. 75, 000 views, not one dislike, respect. Should get John on more!

[VegitoGogita]

As a vacuum cleaner salesman, he should've sung Another One Bites The Dust

[LordLoss]

I wanted to see if I could make a motivational song for a hoover company:

As you're all aware,
We've hoovers to share,
To the customers whose money we'll take,

We're robust in luck,
And sure don't suck,
'Cause we leave that to the products we make,

I assume you all,
With a leap; not a crawl,
Will work to make this company thrive,

I'm counting on you,
Do whatever you do,
'Cause it's the only way this company will survi~~ve.

Now get to work.

[rohp]

Bishop is a common upselliing so and so

[owenmonahan]

There is absolutely nothing behind this man's eyes

[custos]

He looks like someone tried to make Hugh Laurie more attractive but it all went a bit wrong

[efb]

If you worked in the late 80s and remember Dilbert, you have no trouble believing this to be true!

[Marky]

The funniest part is they should have known him and Chris Pratt were on the Graham Norton Show talking about them both having similar Jobs doing this

[bexsta]

me mam and dad got a kirby and it was fab. apparently dog the bounty hunter did the same job too early in his day.

[hanesBoard]

My parents got roped into buying a Kirby in the mid 80's by a door to door salesman. It was a decent machine, but £700 for a vacuum cleaner was a bit mad.

[bexsta]

A male famous actor had the same job and did the same thing. it was om graham norton

[nathanglover]

John Bishop = Hugh Grant plus Hugh Laurie plus Kevin Bacon

[thememaster]

That sounds like a pyramid scheme lol.
