    I am in sales, I sell electronics to companies. Most people do not want to buy and I hate what I do, too much rejection

    Know why?

    'Cause he dedicated himself to a company for 30 years, and all of his RRSP's through the company got lost in the bankruptcy claim when they buckled.

    Wish I was rich enough to help them more, and let him retire..........but I'm simply not. He says he expects to work until he dies.

    *knocks on wood*
    yet you're still unemployed. wow

    There's only one thing worse than sales and that's telemarketing. I did that job, briefly, in the late 80s and holy shit! was it terrible. I can't even imagine how bad it is today.

    Still, sales sucks because the rejection is to your face.

    I feel your pain.

    You know something? I'm always polite to telemarketers when I ask them to please take me off their calling list. Then they hang up on me.

    That was -is- my first real job in America.

    They would call me on the weekend to do a LOCUS (it is a score), and I would do it, while I am by the pool, because it was interesting, and I thought that is how it goes in this country.

    I used to work until morning,
    sometimes the owners would come back to the office by accident,
    and they will find find me there working.

    I never ever worked 8 hours, but always more.

    today I did not go to work, because i had deadline work, and I know I can only do it from home, because there is always a "party" and distraction at work. I did that many times, when we had too much work.

    My brother told me a year ago: if you go to work and push papers from left to right- that is work, regardless, if you make nothing for the company.
    if you work from home, they do not appreciate it, because "you are not at work".
    Sounds like they're taking advantage of you. I agree with Chriza's Girl, though, I think you should talk to them before you quit.

    Me too, but only because of my history.

    the only time I get annoyed is when it's a political, campaign call during election season. Like a telemarketer is going to change my mind.

    Mostly though, the political ones are robo-calls.

    I get so pissed I think of calling them back and hanging up on them.

    The original scent, yes, but the newer ones are nice. Like Listerine. Who the hell still gargles with that nasty, original flavor?
