Time flies

It's been so lone since I really tried to keep a my blog updated. Well I lost my job at to computer sales store 'computer USSR' (criptive, but your bright. You'll probably figure it out) I lost the job due to a lack of sales. Get this! The store stopped having commission sales like so many others have done. The reason stores stopped having commission sales was so all people would get help regardless of what they were shopping for. But get this... They replaced it with tracking your sales numbers of what you take to the register. So since I truly believe that all people deserve help regardless of how deep there pockets are, I didn't 'hit the numbers' that I was required to I was canned. So here is my advice to anyone who wishes to buy something small from the big chains. Let's say you need a new mouse for you computer... Tell the sales guy your buying a new computer. Even go so far as let him talk you in to the expensive one. Then say you would like a better mouse to go with it and let him show you all the differences. You see once he thinks your on the hook for a big ticket item he will take the time you need to really get what you came for. Once you get the mouse you need, say "I'll take this now and get the computer later, perhaps next payday". At this point the sales guy will feel really let down, but you can ask to make sure you have his name and assure him that you will look for him when you make the purchase will keep him happy as he will feel that in time he will 'hit his numbers'.
