Yeah i guess so... Ive been on the company mobile all morning...

Im working from home today... :P

I feel like a right wanker, i have 2 laptops set up out in front of the tv watching american chopper...

Here i am throwing the ball for the dog, drinking lemonade (cause i have a sore tummy) and chatting away on the forum on one laptop. Chatting with sydney on my work intranet on the other laptop and on the phone with customers...

I am even using bluetooth so i can have both hands free... :O

Are you in bed too? That would complete the above piccy for sure :O

How about a little bell too, so then when you want food or a drink you can "alert" someone to fetch it for you... :laugh:

col the business b!tch :O

but i'd quite gladly take ur paypacket :laugh:

I work hard for my money Shane...

:cough:

I have 5 away stay's in the next 2 weeks and the bill on my company amex this month os already over $3000... Opps... I just love steak, what can i say...

We get $1200 a month for entertainment for our customers ei. lunchs and trearts & bribes... Then up to $200 a day for accomodation when more than 110km's from the office... Plus $75 a day for food when away...

Have to say im very very very happy with the new job...

very unethical, but it certainly does go on (i assume its not that blatently advertised in ur company)

I have to say tho in all honesty...

The new job is allot harder, i mean there is allot more work. Im working about 60 hours a week atm...

Its just relationship building and maintaince... Of course there is product training and i have a million names and faces to remember also...

Its money well earnt to be honest...

Sounds like my old job. After 2 years I walked out over numerous reasons. My stress level is so much more user friendly now

The entertainment budget is in every sales reps budget...

I mean every sales rep has an amout to spend every month... If you dont spend it all ever month you will not get it next month... So to play the game you need to spend at least a grand a month...

But in saying that i took 5 people and myself to a really nice place in the city for lunch on Wednesday and for the 6 of us the bill came to $320. So it does not take many lunch's to use that money...

Yeah i left retail due to stress... I was being burnt by customers "wants" all the time...

I just got burnt out from 7 years at Harveys listerning to wankers tell me they know everything and demanding everything. I have seen in my 7 years there a employee punch a customer in the face...

Its quite common for people to snap under stress...

I needed to get into a job where the people i talk to and maintain relationships with an level headed and understand where im coming from. I wanted to deal with like minded people who respect me for who i am and not just as a salesman...

Canon will be a great job and has a awsome career path for me, and ill be staying there for a long time.

I didn't do retail :laugh: But yes, much the same never the less. The stress was huge. In reality the money was huge on paper, however add up the amount of hours you were working and what you would be spending during those hours almost nothing was saved.
