My dad's a salesman, and I remember years ago he got so tired of the 'newbies' who'd say "Yeah, but LAST week I sold ...." that he actually had t-shirts done up that said, and I quote (including no spaces):
"Yeahbutwhatdidyoudotoday?"
The more someone tries to come on like my 'New Best Friend' for the FUTURE, the firmer I stand on my fee for TODAY. |
