You're halfway there. Once you start to lose hair, break 100 in golf, and develop a weekend binge drinking habbit, then, and only then, have you made it as a sales rep, young grasshopper.ย

Just need to work on golf and Iโ€™ll be a bonafide salesman.

You need to work on being mediocre at golf. My self-deprecating nature has always taught me to never be first or last. Just right in the middle.ย

As a woman I think I get a pass on the hair loss thing but I've never played golf in my life... :(

Oh man.... I'm 40, with 50% grey hair, don't golf, hardly ever drink, but might have a gambling problem. Do I honestly have a chance or should I just switch to marketing?ย

As a gambler, you know damn well that switching to marketing is a bad bet. Paddy is here to tell you that you have a chance and your vices aren't bad at all compared to most people I know. Keep grinding amigo

Did they tell you that your experience matches perfectly with anย  "amazing" new position as a telemarketer, $13 an hour to start with a guaranteed 25 hours a week?

Call me what you want, just sign the damn contract
The completely irrelevant ones are the best. @TheLaughingWolf- I promise you'll hit a point one day where you just start responding with "hey, what's the OTE?" because you get so inundated.ย

I had so much fun with these at first. I used to send back insane OTE requests just to see what they'd say. But the shine will wear off...

When your mid-week drinking session with colleagues turns into conversation about the comp plan and you start to see those first grey hairs in the mirror....remember this moment

At first it's kinda fun. Then you go into forecast calls and they ask "Wait is that upside or commit?" Don't worry, what ever answer you give is absolute BS.ย
