I also love people who:

* "stop dead" upon exiting an escalator
* stand in the middle of stairs/doorways to talk
* get knots in cables, and don't give a f*ck

I heard the most ridiculously loud motorcycle I've ever heard just the other day. It was so over the top it made me laugh. Sounded like the Jolly Green Giant ripping ass into the biggest tin can ever created...ย

Here's a recent one, someone I had booked emailed the AE to say that he rescheduled the calendar event. My AE replied "I seen that" ARRRRGH what a way to sound like our office is in a trailer park.

I wouldn't like that either. I don't like hugging anyone other than my romantic partner or close family members.ย

People that are pushy about the time you have scheduled for a meeting and make it awkward when you have to hold them to a โ€œhard stop.โ€ Weโ€™re all dead inside and I can put up with a lot without it irking me but the absolute disregard for my time always gets me flustered

My midwife called my 3yo daughter buddy and I was horrified. I didn't want her near my vagina ever again. Pregnancy hormones.

Brother, I hear you.ย  For me, it is the "all about me attitude" which shows up by rudely disregarding those around you.ย  Even if the action is not geared toward me, I can explode and move into action to "make it right".ย  Yep, fully realize I shouldn't, however, saying/doing nothing just doesn't sit right.ย  (especially if the "victim" is elderly, a child, or a female)

If you could go back in time and tell yourself one thing before starting your sales career, what would it be?
