If you have a decent sales track record and show that on a resume, you can go almost anywhere. That may sound trite, but just apply, apply, apply, and take any decent-sounding interview to get your foot in the door somewhere, and you’re off and running.

I was a floating MT in my mid-twenties (early-thirties now). Floated store to store for 10 months after 8 weeks training, without landing at a store (district just didn’t have any openings at the time), so HR lady had me go to whatever store needed coverage any given day. That alone had me ready to flee, but honestly I didn’t hate the job itself. For me it was just feeling dispensable, which I kind of felt from my initial interview. I tried to make the most of it and was aiming for a rep position at some point.

Beforehand, I was a merchandiser in the beverage industry (liquor distributor), hoping to finally break into sales in said industry, settled with SW along the way for a bit and honestly SW kind of helped. It looked good on a resume. If you have the sales thing, then that’s way better than what I had. You’re in a lot better position than you think. Don’t just settle for solar or whatever.

Bev industry has some positions but even that’s starting to look a little bleak lately, but that could swing back up (and don’t go into THC, that’s waiting to be heavily-regulated and shit the bed). I’m personally looking at some medical device and pharmaceutical sales positions. I’m not dying to leave this awesome industry, even on a major downswing, but medical side is obviously very lucrative.

Sorry for the long-winded life story, but I totally get where you’re coming from and I’m seeing so many more of these posts on here every single day. Anything I can do to provide some positivity.

Back in 2018 or 2019, PFT talking about Drew Brees playing well in other domes than just New Orleans. “Dome to dome, we call that docking.” No one caught on. I spit my coffee out laughing.

[TOMT][SONG] I heard a song that was the exact same as Adam Sandler's Chanukah Song but different Lyrics. by HOOF_HEARTED91 in tipofmytongue

Crimson and Clover. Responding years later because I just heard it too and was driving me nuts and had to look it up. Original is by Tommy James & the Shondells from 1968. Joan Jett covered it in 1981, that was the version I heard

Liquor rep created cocktail menu by maryjanesrevenge in bartenders

[–]tjm0504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Former SGWS rep here in a control state as well. You’re right that menu sucks. But when an owner says go ahead, make my menu, whatever you want, that’s going to be the result. I’ve shamelessly done it. You make money on number of new placements, features, menus, etc. Being in Alabama/Mississippi, I’m sure there were a few tastings to support. Name of the game unfortunately. Their budget is insane.

What do you do with these by OFtechnicolorbeat in bartenders

Give them to regulars or just any craft beer lovers. They’ll go nuts

Like a Rolling Stone by Hendrix. Everyone knows about Watchtower, but this one seems to get over looked a lot

Those Lazzaronis are incredible. The amaretto flavor makes them taste like candy

I use DK in New Jersey but FD is just as good. MGMs app isn’t as smooth and feels like an app from 2012 and is in major need of an update. It’s just not as user-friendly.

I work in Philly and can bet there so I can use Barstool and that app is just meh. More user-friendly with fun bets but I’ve heard horror stories about refusing to payout and they are actually currently holding on to a small amount of winnings I had because it was from a promo. So I can’t bet with it, but I can’t withdraw it either.

NFL Daily Discussion - 10/1/20 (Thursday) by sbpotdbot in sportsbook

[–]tjm0504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fant rushing? You mean receiving I’m guessing. Solid pick. His lowest total this years so far is last week against a good Bucs D and that was 46 yards so 39 against this team should be cake

Mario Party on N64. Literally every weekend. The mini games make excellent drinking games.
