I :heart: salespeople. For accountants trying to figure out sales and use taxes they're sufficient for breaking down technical jargon.

* Note that I'm referring to regional/national sales managers, not the minimum wage mall rate working at CrapUSA for the summer.

0.07 posts per day!

Yeah, that's pretty slow. At this rate it will take him 385.4 YEARS to get to 10,000 posts!!

Sales people are there to sucker you in to purchasing something you don't need. They don't need to know the product at all. A good salesman doesn't sell the product, he sells himself.

You just buy into him or not.

LOL post 147 yea baby!
and no i'm in engineering (not the incompetent IT department)

 

[Freejack2]

Why do companies call us engineering? Were not actually engineers. Were just advanced IT people.

I especially hate it when they say, "can I help you?" and you say, "no thanks, I'm just looking" but they continue to follow you around the store anyway...

Because smart people won't spend their entire career working for mimimum wage.

Your mom sells herself, and I sure as hell bought into her.

That may be true. But I may have to consult my spiritual advisor before I start jumping to conclusions

Good salespeople easily make six figures.

To upset Skoorb.

Sales people see $$$$. That's why sometimes irrational decisions cloud their thoughts.

 

[Rastus]

Salespeople have to act stupid sometimes to avoid liability. If a salesman was selling you a used car, and he demonstrates expertise he will be held accountable for everything he tells you. So, if you try to pin him down on a fault with the car, he'll act like he doesn't know anything about them.

That's a fact. In many companies, the top salespeople can make more than the CEO.

That's true. It's the same with a lot of poker players, as well.
