Are you sure this wasn't simply a sales tactic? Or did you know this sales person personally? I generally don't find sales people to be the most honest and trustworthy individuals.
- n8agrin 16y agoFiring salespeople that don't make their quarterly projections is fairly common afaik.
- logicalmind 16y agoMaybe so, but a sales person guilting a customer into making a purchase in order to save his job would be something a bit different.
- ZeroGravitas 16y agoYou would think that one would follow from the other. In fact you could guess that the very point of threatening to fire someone is to drive them towards tactics that people with a secure job wouldn't countenance.
- michael_dorfman 16y agoI'm sure. We went through quite a number of sales-droids; it was rare that someone lasted more than a quarter or two. Like clockwork, toward the end of each quarter, they'd come up with more and more pointless plans to meet their quota. It was sad, really.
