Shadorne sez .,.,,.
"Salesmen on commission can be rather pushy to the point of being really obnoxious, especially when the profit margins are huge."
I’d venture to say that you wouldn’t make it one week in the sales field, Shadorne. As soon as you’d find out that you have to consistently approach perfect strangers, pique their interest, make an appointment for the evening in order to sit down with the husband and wife, then give a convincing presentation while overcoming all objections, then hand them the agreement and a pen and ask them to sign your contract, often well past midnight ... that’s when you would be reduced to a puddle of tears.
In addition to that, Shadorne, as an independent contractor, you’d have to give up all of the security you have right now. Think about it ... you’d be paying both sides of your Social Security payments ... that’s 15% of your gross income before taxes. No paid vacations. No paid health care. No employer shared stock plan.
You wouldn’t dare.
What you would do, would be to sit back, consider the successful salespeople in the firm "lucky," and then lob pot-shots at them while whispering to others of your ilk, that the successful ones must be cheating in some way.
And here you are calling salespeople "obnoxious." You haven’t a clue of what you’re talking about.
And by the way, Shadorne, what do you find so attractive about this thread? You have no interest in buying or even trying the product at hand, and yet you continue spewing your nonsense here. I’ve asked you several times before ... what is your intent here Shadorne?
