Thats the last time I work at a retail store for work. You're dead to me retail!!! |
Now thats funny, my second job out of university was with Future Shop, and at the time they were into the whole morning chant 7 am sales meetings use the word Fantastic constantly puppy grinding mill.
I actually lasted three years there because I made excellent money and got to manage a store, but in the end the 60 hour work weeks, constant use of the word fantastic and the fact that I was working with people who's idea of professionalism was to stab you in the front instead of the back wore down my level of enthusiasm.
I'd start showing up with two days beard growth, bleary eyed and totally crabby and angry all the time. But it actually worked in selling to the general public.
My favorite line in the end was "Quite wasting time, buy it or don't I don't care about your kids and your grandma anymore"
I got as many sales as complaints so it worked out.
