misterninehamhilarious when salesmen get mad that i don't return their calls. get a job buddy
Apiary@misternineham I have had sales dudes have full conversations all on their own in my inbox.
@Apiary lol same! when all you have is soft skills, it's soft skills to the end.
@misternineham I would argue that they don’t have those. But that technique works by triggering people’s sense of social obligation. So I guess they do have those skills, I just don’t care.
@Apiary totally. we need a new term - perhaps gelatinous skills
a libi rose@misternineham there are like 3 different companies that keep trying to sell a cleaning contract to the lab and they cannot seem to comprehend that we are part of the university so i get rambling emails and voicemails about their services that sound so utterly desperate
@rose_alibi i might be tempted to play one off of another to waste everyone's time if it wasn't all so cringe
@misternineham yeah sales is such a vile profession. sales, marketing, all gross
