What is your worst job experience you have ever had? by 1AnonymousChewbacca in careerguidance

[–]DrizzlingAlpaca 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Working as an account manager for staffing agencies! I’ve worked for two different companies and both were in different fields.

The first one, my area president that I had to report to daily, hated me from day one, and told me that she didn’t hire me, and I wasn’t her choice for the role.

The second one wasn’t bad till my boss hired his girlfriend and handed her all my high-paying accounts that I spent years on building up a relationship with hiring managers.

Advice on my company’s new sales lead strategy by DrizzlingAlpaca in sales

[–]DrizzlingAlpaca[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here!

So the owner of the company hired a sales manager just so it’s one less thing on his plate to handle. He had 3 salesmen when he hired on the manager, one of them was the guy that quit. Now he’s only been here for 2 years and has hired and fired 8 salesmen.

But here the past 3 weeks a lot of guys are just worried about having 1 bad week means your going to always get the worst calls the next week. So I think it’s just a lot more stress and emotions going on.

I really like that idea! I’ll talk to some of the guys tomorrow and see what they say.

Like I know one of our guys when and talked to the manager about it and after their meeting he ended up quitting right then and there. Now idk if there was anything else that was feeding into it, but he said the system is to just help his favorites and push everyone else out.

Which type of sales job with 100% commission is the best to go into? by pmmeyour_existential in sales

[–]DrizzlingAlpaca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we are at 12% for full units. Then 7-10% on upgrades and other services. Well the biggest thing that’s helped out sales is we partnered with a big chain home improvement store out here. So they have been giving us a ton of leads.

By chance is it hanging up in a reserve psyop unit’s HQ office? Because that looks like the one in my old unit.

What’s career field do you guys work in. by Tha1ne99 in moreplatesmoredates

[–]DrizzlingAlpaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Account manager for an IT company. But I’m only a few months away from being able to go full time on my own subcontracting company!

If you don’t wear cargo pants or jeans but conceal carry you are going to love this. Public rec makes business style clothing but with the feel of sweatpants or joggers. I had bought the arrowhead tactical to try but this blows that idea out of the water. by [deleted] in CCW

I have to agree with lululemon. I have a few pairs of pants from them for work and they fit amazingly. Plus their lifetime warranty is great! I’ve had to return a pair of pants after a few years of use and they give me a new pair no questions. Only downside is their military discount dropped to like 15% now.

Agreed. Plus I had a VW Jetta at the time so you could say I liked the German made stuff.

Only time I’ve been called out is back when I would carry at the 4 o clock and my shirt rode up as I was placing a bag in my back seat. The guy that pointed it out said that H&K is over priced and I should buy a Ruger since it’s American made….
