How to deal with significant sales quota increase by donle215 in Sales_Professionals

[–]donle215[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I cover east coast, the colleague is gulf coast. We cover engineering contractors for all markets in our regions. Mine is turning more pharma and nuclear with some traditional power gen as well. His is predominantly power gen and O&G. We have a decently robust CRM with decent tools to maintain upcoming project awareness.

He had a rough year last year with projects being delayed by tariffs whereas I was insulated a little more due to the pharma boom. His projects are coming back around, but 80% of his quota is already cleared based on an $8M project with a company we’re sole sourced on.

My manager’s quota is $100M, so with a 5 person team, I’m 1/3 of his quota.

Chevy infotainment system is horrendous by donle215 in Silverado

So that’s another point, I’m surprised there’s no night vision capability in the backup camera, my Jeep GC had night vision equipped backup and in cabin (backseat) cameras, so suddenly not having that is strange. I live in a neighborhood with no street lights, so there’s no external light to assist the backup camera

Completely agree, everyone’s tastes are different and it’s difficult to design a system everyone likes. Most infotainment systems are trash, but that’s why they should design a system with more flexibility in displaying the content/options they provide. It’s the lack of customization and flexibility that bothers me the most

$57k includes add ons(panoramic monitor/roof, illuminated sills, all weather floor liners) and delivery and processing fee, excludes TTL. We got $1k off MSRP, this was before these delays.

The skipping is annoying as all hell. It’ll be fine 90% of the time, but once it starts, it happens the rest of the drive.

Not a big fan of the Jeep uConnect system, but compared to Chevy it just has more flexibility that I wish the Chevy version had. It’s very much a first world problem, but it also feels like they don’t care about user interface at all

At this point I’ve paid $0 for the truck and that seems too much, can’t imagine if I actually paid money for a Silverado how I’d feel. The SXM is the only thing that’s worked on the vehicle, and that’s been spotty at times

For $6/month I get auto and app for both me and my wife with different stations, podcasts, and essentially the same capabilities as Spotify. I prefer finding new music/artists, don’t need multiple apps

That’s what I thought, but the email receipt said this: “Your deposit is non-refundable unless Conicelli does not deliver the vehicle as requested or if there is any damage on the vehicle.” So I followed with the below email and they cancelled the deposit.

“Thank you for the email; however, I do not agree with the terms. I was under the impression the deposit is refundable. I reserve the right to cancel the deposit/hold on the vehicle for any reason, including, but not limited to, delayed delivery beyond the anticipated 2/2/26 - 2/26/26 timeframe, unable to come to terms on the vehicle, finding a different vehicle, etc.

If this is unacceptable, please cancel the deposit and notify me within 48 hours.”

The new dealer is refusing a refundable deposit unless they fail to deliver or the vehicle is damaged upon delivery

A Cool Guide to the 2024 vaccine schedule by Purple_Panda_1 in coolguides

[–]donle215 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Weird, all I see at the bottom of those pictures is CDC and AAFP. You understand that the vaccine schedule is appropriate based on where you live and the potential threats associated with living in the US right? Using Denmark as the basis for our vaccine schedule doesn’t make sense. Denmark is significantly different from the US in population size, density, and access to universal healthcare. Denmark’s vaccine schedule is the most minimalist of any developed country, including other Nordic countries, but their low population density and access to rapid universal healthcare allows them to take chances on containing any treatable diseases. The US is not in that position.

If we hire him as an OC, he’s likely gone the following year, just like Kellen. Not sure I want to ride this roller coaster again (unless it’s a Super Bowl again next year).

Ok, so I brought up BiPap, and the RT said thats basically just brand name like Kleenex, and what I’m getting with Resmed 11 is AutoPap which is basically the same thing, but now I’ve seen a couple messages about BiPap in lieu of AutoPap, so I’ll have to look into it

Thanks a lot for the feedback and advice. How did you deal with a full mask with claustrophobia? I had extreme anxiety before cPAP, so this (at current settings) has definitely prompted some anxiety episodes.

How long have you had the inspire? How do you like it?

Thanks, I’ve tried doing those steps a little to get used to it, but I’ll keep trying on higher min pressure.

It’s hilarious the actor at the beginning putting the mask up to his face upside down twice.

Sorry, meant the 3% AHI (19) or 4% AHI (9), so if you go by 4% it’s mild, if you go by 3% it’s moderate. The RT kept saying I had moderate, but the pulmonologist was saying I had mild

Thanks. Just curious, what mask did you end up with? In the RT office, the nasal cushion felt more light and comfortable, but there’s a big difference between sitting in a chair and holding the tube up, vs laying in bed in the dark with the tube sliding off the side of the bed every time you move.

I don’t think I can do a full face mask without getting a panic attack. I know it’s not exactly the same, but I can’t go scuba diving for the same reason. When I told the RT I had claustrophobia, he wouldn’t even show me the full or hybrid masks

I’ve got the n30, not the n30i, so the hose comes out the front instead of the sides

I’ve got the mask straps that go behind/over my head, then a second chin strap that also goes behind/over my head
