I'd tend to disagree.

Any sales exec worth a crap will tell you the first step is just getting a foot in the door.

It helps when that foot is attached to a shapely leg.

Why would anyone give the time of day to a fat slovenly dude when the competition looks so much better?

It requires the attractive sales person to have the more rare gift of actually knowing how to sell and finalizing it that makes the difference.

Teh hotness just makes the door opening easier.

Back when I sold copy machines we had these blonde girls who could always an appointment but never close any business. Meanwhile every appt I got I pretty much closed. Why? Because I didn't have to earn credibility once I got in. They were never taken seriously.

You talk teeth. I'll talk sales.

Ugh, I hate bosses that don't have college degrees. They should never promote those people. You spend $100,000 on an education and they get to be the boss because they got a head start in the work force before you. Then you start questioning why you went to college in the first place.
Yeah fug experience.

this is true.. I've seen a girl bring in 20 clients in a week, the average was 2-4.. she was incredibly hot.. the guys signed up because that's what guys do.. but no rapport was built or foundation formed.. they all canceled.. after 5 weeks of that she was forced to move on..

Your odds of not having a degree and making over $70k are much less than if you did.

As for wasting it, i think its what you make of it. Having a degree doesnt give you a fast track to success.

that's why I used 70k as a mark.. you can easily make 50k or so without a degree. then again, it takes a go-getter and not the typical 9-5 "I'm satisfied with doing just enough" mentality..

then again, if you are a real idea person and have true motivation, 70k is chump change..

you put a sheep in a lions den, you're fuged. ;)

so that's how you got the job

my boss IS kinda effeminate.....

Seriously though, the irony of my story is they were going through Manager after Manager with college degrees and none of them were worth a poo. After they fired the manager the last time I all but demanded an opportunity, and here I am 10 years later.
