I'm insane


Matt Foley

Recommended Posts

For the last three months of 2009, I couldn't find a job to save my life, so I really shouldn't complain, but....I am now working four jobs, not including my job as Huddle Badass.

One is even full time. I guess I'll be making up for the savings I lost over the past 10 months, but damn.

I tried the wait until one good job comes along approach. Kept losing out to someone's relative or friend. So now I am piecing my days together four different ways. And I bet there's some of you on here doing the same thing.

I don't know. Starting next week, I'll be working about 60 hours a week.

thats an easy week for me. I sell cars, so they require me to damn near live at the dealership..I was in management for a while until I decided it wasn't worth the stress, so now I make roughly the same money, just have a ton of free time. When I don't have a customer I literally have nothing to do, can get quite boring sometimes...

Most of the cool poo on the net is blocked, so I'm stuck on the Huddle all day waiting for you guys to post something interesting

Thought about trying that. There are like three dealerships within two miles of my house. Just afraid of doing sales. I'm not a natural bullschitter. And I don't mean that as an insult. It's a gift I don't have.

Its impossible to budget yourself and until you establish yourself as elite in the field you'll be treated like dogpoo at most dealerships. I am very gifted at it and never have the need to b.s anyone but I consider it like a gift and a curse.

It's a gift cuz sales come easy to me, but at the same time I hate sacrificing my youth up in this bitch 24/7. Also alot of us who have early success at it think were always gonna make good money every month, so we accumulate alot of debt thinking its no prob to pay back. So my required income just to pay all my bills every month is insane and now I just work my ass off and have nice things but have very little free time or disposable income

It's funny I was just watching a movie called Lifeguard, where Sam Elliott plays a lifeguard given a job selling Porsches, and the sales manager gives him all kinds of hell when he comes in for his "interview".

this industry is in a world of its own. If I have kids I will never let them do this for a living.

I've been in sales for 10 years now. I love when new sales people come in all eager. They buy into the "sky is the limit" and think it will be awesome. I think its like 70% of people who get in to sales aren't still doing it 2 years later.

    • Think the "official time" put out was 4.48, but there were a lot of scouts there who of course all had difference times as it's all handed timed by them.  Think I saw it as low as 4.43 and as high as 4.62 or something, but in the end it's all basically the same speed because 40 yard dash is so pointless. Anyone who complains about his speed is just someone who wants a Chase/Jefferson/Nabers style #1 as opposed to an Evans style #1 who isn't going to beat you because of his speed but his other abilities. In the end, he's fast enough for a player his size and surprisingly quicker and more agile than people give him credit for too. The real problem is that Panthers fans can't get our past big WR failures out of their head, they hear "big WR" and automatically see a plodding KB or Jarrett in their minds and assume that's also T-Mac.
    • If you are buying Silver Club, 300 level, try and the buy ones that have the Lot 1 parking pass.  it is steps to the stadium Also, buy on the shade side my PSls used to be section 342, under the overhang.  I didnt care about sun or rain plenty of sites have interactive  maps that can show you   Just know, if they are opposite side of 342, the sun will beat on your head…endzones too.   if, you know for sure that you are going, and you need a hotel room, do it now  you can always cancel … remember, even if the panthers suck,  the national press follows them as do their fans.  Hotel rooms go fast for that game 
    • didn't he run like a 4.52?
