They have both positive and negative connections Posted on November 23, 2025 at 05:07:32 PM by Battery design
Well Jim, a loser should know that topic well but like Joe Shurtz told me years ago when I got his ND job... he'd moved into sales and told me he was no longer thinking negativity like news people do for a living, but positively like sales people do.
You were in sales? Maybe you didn't get that memo. Isn't buying kinda like being in sales? Dunno, I rarely wandered from the newsroom to the other end of the building where the sales office was. Nobody was ever there, They were made to hit the pavement and drum up new hardware stores to advertise on the station.
Sales managers were slave drivers, I was told. Zat why you turned to kitchen table selling? To gete the SM off your back? Just askin. Replies:
