I can't STAND our new sales guy.
This guy is stupid. I mean STOOPID! Like GEORGE BUSH stupid.

Get this. The guy comes in for his first day, and when I hand him his access card for the office, I tell him there are no more covered spaces in the parking garage, so he's on a waiting list. He whines and complains, says he's going to "talk to someone" about it. :eyes:

I tell him until he gets it sorted, he has to park on top of the parking garage. Guy comes in the next day asking how to get there. Seriously.

He also walks around my desk having conversations on his cell phone. He did that just now. He was yammering to some guy... and apparently he assumed I'd be listening, because he holds his card in front of my face (like I don't know our address, fax number, etc.) and asks me "Did I read that right?"

UGH!

1. Sounds like any other sales guy to me
:shrug:

If it's not self-deprecating humor, it's usually sheer stupidity. There are some bright spots here and there, but they are few and far between - usually seperated by a sea of cheesy mullets.

3. Gag
The worst thing? They all think they're so damn good looking.

Is it wrong that I want to punch them?

2. All salesmen are kinda like that....
Rude and pushy...

It's the nature of the business....

At least that is how I have found them to be....

And if they perform, they will get the perks.....

4. Yeah
Ugh.

I hate that!

Why is it that the engineers who DESIGN the freaking product get paid less than the primped up arrogant assholes who sell it?

6. Try to get them to follow the rules.....
As an accountant, it drove me fucking crazy to deal with those ass holes....

But, they do take the company to the people....

And there is a reason they are out there instead of in house....

Cause they are too obnoxious to stand...

And they all think they are god gift....

8. Well they just refuse to, don't they?
They know as long as they're pulling in the numbers, they ain't gotta do ANYTHING else... so yes, they think they're god's gift.

What's really annoying is this one sort of new guy. I swear to god he POSES and MUGS like he's a frickin runway model!
