Lovely attitude

Posted in Work on September 28th, 2004

To the sales staff over at New Horizons Institute:

I can understand that you are frustrated in our current economy. Though the pundits proclaim the recession is over, unemployment is still on the rise, and people are not likely to be enrolling at your fine academy.

However, when you blatantly advertise on job-search websites offering ‘certification internships’ that do indeed cost money, without ever mentioning your tuitions, don’t be surprised when the folks you call are quick to decline. And when they do decline, don’t vent your frustration at your lack of sales by slamming the handset down in the cradle.

To the rest of you, this is what happens when you stupidly base your salary on commission: the economy takes a nosedive, everybody stops spending money, and you wind up with no sales. Get some skills and get a real job, salesfeeb.

Ch-ch-changes…

Made some adjustments top the layout of the comments pop-up, justifying the text and losing the “HTML allowed” blurb. Let me know what you think about it.
