That's the worst kind of customer, but you know what. You are better than the prima donna from hades.

You got to suck it up John. You don't have a boss whom you can cuss out like robo did till the **** hit the fan. We'll all have a good time and get smashed. Ace I'll give you what ever you want to drink but not smoke . See ya. Thank you very much

I never cussed at him 
Although there was quite a bit of cussing from him at sales meetings as he berated everyone for not being able to achieve our goals by doing exactly what he told us we had to do. Between the foul language and the disrespectful attitude toward our contractors, sales meetings got pretty uncomfortable at times.

Just kidding with you robo. I know you had a ****ty deal there. You will find something better soon and be happier for it. Thank you very much

Well, the crappy deal was an altogether other matter. After forcing me into a position to either quit or represent the company as the technical rep with absolutely no compensation or even a thanks, they gave me crap for my sales not meeting their goals, even though I increased my sales margin each month. The only two salesman who made their sales goals both have two territories each from other salesman who were let go from this company.
A real lesson in marketing dictating to sales rather then feeding sales.

One of the things I have always found amusing is:
A sales manager that thinks absurdly HIGH goals can be achieved in a recession...
I guess they think just because they 'say' it... it will happen.
NO WAY would I ever trust my financial well being to a jerk like that... Guess I am truly not cut out to work for anyone other than myself.

Hey robo try and swing it down here if you can. We'd love to see ya. Heck I'm even having to forget about going to Knoxville, TN that weekend as they are having an event up there with some good old boys. Thank you very much

Does not look promising Glenn. I am up to my ears with getting my consulting company up and running in a proper manner rather then the haphazzard way I had been using it as an extracurricular business over the years. There are a lot of things the wife and I need to learn to do this properly.
I still want to work in a stable position somewhere and use the consulting company as a sideline, but with the way things are right now, I better build this thing as if my life depends on it.
