client was so sexist that he refused to speak with me. I had to have a male coworker be the "front person", and obviously had to split the commission.ย

@Incognitoย F that guy... but also *thanks for the commish*.ย  ย  What sort of product do you sell? In tech, I find most of my DMs just think that they're smarter than I am- annoying, but can play it to my advantage. Straight up refusing to speak to me? I'd probably sabotage that sale and homie's reputation. Some bridges are worth burning...ย

No way I'm gonna sabotage a deal that big, though. Or any deal, really.ย 

I've made my career from dealing with difficult people. In fact, I request them because they ALWAYS pay more. They have to for someone to put up with their bullshit.ย 

Whenever they do something douchey, I just look at my bank balance. If it has the right amount, I keep on smiling :)ย 

If not, I tell them that daddy really does love them so don't take that shit out on me haha

Just a guy who thought "big tech" was targeting companies with conservative values. He was afraid they were going to delete/nuke all his customer data in his cloud applications. Made for an easy sale but had to agree with his delusion that conservatives are being targeted and persecuted in America..

Every 4 years I'm so glad that I took many years of debate in school so I could learn how to argue both sides of an issue... Presidential election years are the hardest in sales.ย
