I'd tend to disagree.

Any sales exec worth a crap will tell you the first step is just getting a foot in the door.

It helps when that foot is attached to a shapely leg.

Why would anyone give the time of day to a fat slovenly dude when the competition looks so much better?

It requires the attractive sales person to have the more rare gift of actually knowing how to sell and finalizing it that makes the difference.

Teh hotness just makes the door opening easier.

Back when I sold copy machines we had these blonde girls who could always an appointment but never close any business. Meanwhile every appt I got I pretty much closed. Why? Because I didn't have to earn credibility once I got in. They were never taken seriously.

You talk teeth. I'll talk sales.

Ugh, I hate bosses that don't have college degrees. They should never promote those people. You spend $100,000 on an education and they get to be the boss because they got a head start in the work force before you. Then you start questioning why you went to college in the first place.
Yeah fug experience.

this is true.. I've seen a girl bring in 20 clients in a week, the average was 2-4.. she was incredibly hot.. the guys signed up because that's what guys do.. but no rapport was built or foundation formed.. they all canceled.. after 5 weeks of that she was forced to move on..

Your odds of not having a degree and making over $70k are much less than if you did.

As for wasting it, i think its what you make of it. Having a degree doesnt give you a fast track to success.

that's why I used 70k as a mark.. you can easily make 50k or so without a degree. then again, it takes a go-getter and not the typical 9-5 "I'm satisfied with doing just enough" mentality..

then again, if you are a real idea person and have true motivation, 70k is chump change..

you put a sheep in a lions den, you're fuged. ;)

so that's how you got the job

my boss IS kinda effeminate.....

Seriously though, the irony of my story is they were going through Manager after Manager with college degrees and none of them were worth a poo. After they fired the manager the last time I all but demanded an opportunity, and here I am 10 years later.

      Most hated teams

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
