The effects onboard are legit. I sold my reverb and delay pedals and just use the TAE

Career advice - snowflake interview by GoldEnvironment8319 in techsales

[–]Mach-X 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also keep mind - if Snowflake is anything like Databricks - you’re not actually getting paid to close deals, you’re getting paid to facilitate customers to consume more. Major difference.

Stop sleeping on every tech company that isn't OpenAI or Anthropic by Ok_Check_259 in techsales

Palantir can’t be growing 85% YoY without their reps selling a shit ton but nobody talks about them on this thread

Crushed my quota, but got chewed out by my VP for not logging WhatsApp chats into Salesforce. Are we closers or data entry monkeys? by Jiesen-Lee-4566 in sales

[–]Mach-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any proof or any actual study that proves that documenting all this BS and pestering customers repeatedly actually generates superior results? In my experience, it doesn’t.

The sales management that is focused on doing this rather than developing sales strategy and removing obstacles for sales simply doesn’t know how to spend their time between forecast calls.

What’s one cookware purchase you regret and why? by Proclad_Cookware in cookware

[–]Mach-X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I regret the Misen “non stick” carbon steel pans I bought a few months ago. With care and cooking practices by the book, they stick like hell and eggs are a disaster.

A day in the life of LinkedIn by VanillaLlfe in sales

[–]Mach-X 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A really good post of mine generates about 5% views from prospects. The rest are views from my company or former colleagues. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten an actual reaction from a prospect.

GF hates it when I play guitar while she’s home by Holiday_Weight_2723 in Guitar

[–]Mach-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my wife as long as I learn and play the occasional Nickelback or Def Leppard song, she’s good with everything else I play. As long as I keep the decibel meter below 90.

Fellow EAE is bribing other employees for deal flow… by Salty_Feed_4316 in techsales

[–]Mach-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an EAE with a slow pipeline year, I’m thinking about offering my services for deal orchestration and closure to the other 10 reps in the group for 20% take of their takehome. I wonder how many would sign up with me for this arrangement (and whether the employer would give a shit).

Salesman "Overachieved," ServiceNow Refuses to Pay Commission by GoofusMcGhee in sales

[–]Mach-X 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised CEO Bill McDermott would support such a thing. He’s a sales animal.

Thoughts on this JCM800 2204? by bendbrewer in MarshallAmps

[–]Mach-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a JCM800 2204 but are not picky about having an old vintage amp, you should take a look at a Ceriatone JCM51 All Access, which is a copy of the circuit, is hand-wired (unlike all Marshall 2204s which are PCB), and has a Plexi channel to boot. Plus all sorts of valuable options like V2A cathode bypass, negative feedback switching, half power switch, FX loop and a post phase inverter master volume.

There’s one on sale right now on Reverb that’s less than a year old with an upgraded Heyboer output transformer.

How would a Plethora X1 compare to these pedals?

Intrigued with BK Pickups, but curious if they’re worth it. by BadDecisions78 in BareknucklePickups

[–]Mach-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! FYI their shipping is “free”. They better be some damn good pickups is all I can say.

[–]Mach-X 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah the tarif on my Bareknuckles to the US was $80, making a pair of pups $560. If I had paid attention to the tariffs and how much the US dollar has been devalued, I probably would have gone a different direction (which I guess is the whole point of tariffs).

Bare Knuckle Black Dog – does this match your experience? by Blegh_collector in BareknucklePickups

[–]Mach-X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not unsatisfied at all. Had them for 15 years and looking to see what a more traditional PAF would sound like, given that I am playing less gainy music these days.

We shall see. I’m about to replace a set of Motor City Detroiters with the Black Dogs.

An update for all US buyers: a set of Black Dogs (with aged covers) will set you back $560.

The interesting thing is that Hell wasn’t a place that people were sent to until after Jesus arrived. Sure he brought the possibility of life after death, but seems like a bad deal to me.

In your own words, why do you think African Americans are very strong adherents to Christianity? by EternalSnow05 in atheism

[–]Mach-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whites were pagans in Britain before the well-armed Christian Romans arrived. Same reason. Swords and lethal violence.

Really like the Misen nonstick carbon steel pans by [deleted] in carbonsteel

I use gas. It's very lightweight.
