First impressions

Hello there. How can I help you? First day at work. The work of a IT-equipment & supplies salesman is not too shabby. But do not get me wrong. It's not glamorous either.

The good sides:

1. I can buy hardware & software for my own use, slicing through the margins.
2. The customers are humble - for the most part.
3. You're constantly selling different things - from 42" lcd tv's to laptops to 10-packs of dvds & the odd cables & connectors.
4. The co-workers are easy-going, smart, and helpful.
5. It's a hell of a lot closer to home than my last place.

The bad sides:

1. I can't buy that much hardware because the salary isn't SIZZLING. It's OK. I get a whopping two thousandths of whatever I sell as commission. Well suppose I sell stuff worth 30k per day, that's 60€ bonus. Wee. May all the fucking yuppies come my way.
2. Some of the customers are annoying PERIOD.
3. Few breaks, you cannot relax much. People are watching.
4. It's taking away my evenings and saturdays. Well I get compensated for that!
5. Still not quite what my schooling should get me.

You do the math and tell me. At least I am moving on.
