What a great morale boost /s.

Glad you're not a part of the 15%.

Hey! 15% more territory for everyone.

(too soon?)

Sorry, it's been a long day. This all sucks. I'm sorry.

I've been absolutely slam jammed with demos this week that I scheduled in December.

Just started a job I took out of desperation until I can find something else. Three days of nothing but training so far. We won't be selling anything for the first 6 weeks here.

I'm torn between being distraught at being paid half what I was at my last job and being thankful to even have a job at all. Also feeling a bit guilty that should I find something, these guys will have spent the time training and paying me with no payoff.

Q1 is a bit of dumpster fire, but Q2 looks significantly better.

Already have one rep meeting booking quota, the rest of the year is gravy for him. Finally found a great candidate for a position I've had open for nearly a year. Shaping up very nicely so far

I'm getting a disproportionate amount of "spending freezes" holding up late stage deals. I had my monthly target expected to clear legal by 1/07 and am currently sitting at 0. So, dumpster fire
