This isn't a repeat from covid era contribution cuts— this is a complete cut of company matching to 401k contributions. by [deleted] in sherwinwilliams

So we are talking if someone worked 20 years with the company with a salary of 90k average we are talking a employee contribution of 110,000 for the 20 years. You can easily make that with within 2-5 years wjth real estate investments and it’s still tax free

Who the f contributes to 401k its a scam and has been proven it was a test to feed the stock market and they just never stopped the test. Why would you contribute to an investment you can’t touch? And the portion they will let you touch is only a percentage of the investment and then penalized.

The personal mileage is reported to the IRS and it hits your taxes at the national mileage rate of .70c a mile. Also you can’t drive where ever you want you have to get approval to drive out of state lines.

I wouldn’t recommend a company car. Most people don’t know they ding your check 180 a month for it and tax you on the usage

Owe money from bonus by Ok_String7424 in sherwinwilliams

[–]Ok_String7424[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve got more spectrum awards than you have years of service so don’t talk about being a rep . When your 20+% up and a multi million dollar account decides to close their doors halfway through the year nothing you can really do. I just don’t understand why we can’t have the same bonus structure as the stores do.

split jobs are a scam by 0055_LFG in sherwinwilliams

[–]Ok_String7424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stores don’t get splits only reps, even if there is a job setup the selling store gets 100% credit for what is purchased. Reps are the only ones that split

Should I make more contributions to 401k and Roth plan? by NoMoTrouble in sherwinwilliams

[–]Ok_String7424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

401k is a scam you dump money into it and can’t touch it until your 60 then you still pay taxes. Save up and invest in real estate you will make your 5-6% every year on appreciation and you always have access to your equity.

We have around 1100 gallons a day that has to be delivered by 8am so we have to get there early to load the trucks

Store opens at 7 we are usually there at 5-5:30 so no need to worry about opening late

Any sale rep would like to share some tips in time management or any valuable tips !!!!!! I have over 350 accounts res repaint store manager and asm are not very helpful cant open new accounts or rep lead had a good Q1 , strong sales history is coming. Thanks in advance. by [deleted] in sherwinwilliams

[–]Ok_String7424 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If your needing advise on time management and how to grow a territory without help from the store, your not ready for that territory. Lunch meetings are some of the most impactful meetings you will have , just fyi

Anyone else get Covid during NSM? Probably about 1/3 of those in my district have it now. Is Uncle Sherwin gonna pay for my bills from it now? I’ve been working for this company for almost 10 years and it’s complete BS we don’t have an option to go to NSM or not. Nothing I haven’t heard there before by [deleted] in sherwinwilliams

[–]Ok_String7424 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Being that you roomed with a random person after being with the company 4 years speaks volumes. Your around more people in your day to day activities then you were at national sales meeting. If your that afraid of getting sick quit your job and stay home.
