Yeah, sure. That's the perfect example of typical commercial bullshit speech that drives me nuts at you guys.

Yeah sure, they are not at all people who ended up there because:
1. They were not able to do anything else.
2. They have a lust for money and playing with people.
Please cut the crap, when you hold this kind of speeches, I know you're already trying to make me a fool.
- davidivadavid 10y agoI think sales takes a lot more effort. I guess things are subjective? By the way, salespeople who make 6 or 7 figures in commission per annum didn't pick that job because they weren't "able to do anything else." Are you telling me SV engineers have picked jobs where they make 6 figures coincidentally? Or maybe they just ended up there because: 1. They were shy nerds who couldn't do anything but code 2. They hate money so they pick jobs that put them in the 90th income percentile Or maybe... it looks like things are a bit more complicated and clichés aren't adding much to the discussion.
