i wonder if the nature and specialization of your professional work is what allows you to be like that with employers, i imagine the local cashier at mcdonalds doesn't have that kind of bargaining power

Like selling enterprise tech services? Like a fucking Salesforce account rep or salesperson? Lmao

Sales people fucking suck. They have the skill set of a con artist (apologies to any comrades who are forced to work sales to make a living).

they said they were in tech sales, their background was in cybersecurity but they made more in sales. that's the gist of it.

Imagine giving up a technical position for a sales position. I’m poor as fuck but I actually enjoy my work. I own my home. I get to play guitar and play with my kids. If I’d taken the sales position I was offered I’d be dead.
