| 220900 | 2004-03-07 23:13:00 | hi I think in this case we should all Agree that we do Disagree, we all have opinions and no two are exactly alike. being honest is fine, but when its rude or hurtful that is a low blow for any one regardless if they salesperson or customer. also no i dont think AD's all the be all and end all, but with help and concelling any one can over come a situation that is harmful. take it slowly and one day at a time. who cares what other people think, its there problem if they are jerk's. hope things get sorted for you soon Reality, remember to look after yourself, take time out or time off from work. get back to basic's and learn to relax. think about what you really want to be doing with your life. whether it be stay in same job or change of career or even a town. talk to your Dr, or a helpline if possible, if it gets that stressful, let it out, bottling things up is bad for the mind and body. hope you have a nice day today, thinking of you. beetle |

| 220902 | 2004-03-08 01:03:00 | Hi Guys I don't do sales people. If they ask me 'would you like any help?', I walk right out the door. If I want help, I'll go to them. Also fast food places, if I am not served within 5 minutes before ordering my food, I walk right back out again. KFC is a prime example of where I do this the most. Rev Species 116 |

| 220904 | 2004-03-08 06:22:00 | Hi:) Thankyou so much for your replies . I did not intend to reply at all, to any of the Aforesaid replys . What has compelled me to do so; Is the sheer volume of advise given . This post was my view on why there is an 'Urgent' need for legislation at either Local level or Government level to protect Retail Salespersons Livelihood . WHY? . I have seen 5 very good colleagues of mine choose to resign from the Company that I work for [within 2 yrs] for the very same reasons outlined in my original post . Most admittedly going to work as Sales Reps for Appliance Manufacturers . They call on Appliance Retailers and deal only with Retailers not generally the public . Yes: This is something I could look at,but for now my budget only allows me to live and work in a Provincial City . That being Tauranga . And as I only get paid $9 per hour 'gross' [My Retainer] + commission [which amounts to around $80 per wk] 'gross' . . . . with a 45 hr wk,my fortnightly pay after tax only just pays my bills and food . Thats all . Customers assume that if I sell a fridge to them valued at $1699 . 00 that I earn at least $50 . 00 commission . <---[Quote from a customer] This is a fallacy . My commission is $5 . 00 . Yet for that sale, I have been 'Hammered' for discount,threatened with the Fair Trading Act . Had the Consumer Magazine shoved under my nose, and been quoted with the Consumer Guarantees Act and advise from the Commerce Commision . Then if I don't comply with these 'Demands' The response I get is . . . . We'll take this to Fair Go! . Strange: But True! . I chose Antidepressants not as a 'Cop Out' ,because I'm a weak minded individual . But because in consultation with a Psychologist and my own GP the option for utilizing this med, was recommended for me . I chose to go with that advise . Yes!, I plan to go of this med,but the time is not right at present . Thanks to Jen C Quote: Treat People the way you yourself would like to be treated . Very true:) If someone "Bites" me then I can only Bite back Twice as hard . Usually it has the desired effect . Even though only as a last resort . This is my last post . Thanks:) |

| 220905 | 2004-03-08 08:26:00 | Kind of sad really. Guy opens his mouth, sort of sticks his neck out, on what appears to be almost his first post and *POW* he gets both barrels. If he had some problems before, now that a number of people have shat on his post he'll certainly have a few more. Quote This is my last post. | Scouse (83) | ||

Provided you can sell stuff of course. |

| 220907 | 2004-03-08 08:38:00 | All very interesting viewpoints. Self-employed I AM my company's salesperson and have had my share of "difficult" customers. I always think the best way to exact your revenge on these people is to take their money off them. :-) | Sb0h (3744) | ||
