Work
Last thursday went clubbing with Sabrina, Winnie and Jacky at Double O. We ordered 5 jugs in all and I think towards the end, Sabrina was kinda thristy so she drank the entire jug of Volka Coke and thats when she went crazy after which. lolx.. We headed to the coffeeshop for supper and...Sabrina told the lady selling Bak Kut teh she doesnt eat Beef!! Muahaha! Bak Kut Teh Store selling Beef!!!! And of course, all the "i'm not drank" and "i can still walk straight" were thrown in as a package as well.
Started working on Friday at Carrefour PS, back to selling LCDs and Plasmas. Was at PS for 2 days, sales was pretty bad. Only sold 4 sets in 2 days. Was transferred over to Carrefour Suntec yesterday. Sales was equally bad, only 2 sets sold on a Sunday. Today was much better. 4sets today. Could have made it 5, but the last deal for a 42" plasma did not close because the customer's credit card exceeded credit limit. Everything was settled till the point of making payment, it did not pull through. Well..hopefully he will be back.
My company's pay structure changed. It used to be low basic and high commission, now it is high basic, lower commission. I guess this pay system is not that good for me, cuz I can sell more and earn more than of current. But well, as long as there is money, keeps me occupied for the next 3 months and I can learn more out of this job anything is okie with me.
The reason why I like being in the sales line is there is alot of exposure to many people. Everyday you will be meeting different people, answering different qns, using different techniques to handle difficult people especially. The most fulfilling part of it other than closing deals of course, is to make those difficult customer suck thumb without making them angry through reasoning and persuaion. lolx!..hmm..sounds familiar?! PH1101E Reason and Persuasion. hahaz..
The bad point about this job is you got to stand 8hrs/day. I stood 12hrs on Sun, because shit do happens sometimes. I feel it is still alot better than some admin job, where you sit 8hr/day, looking into the damn screen, typing out what others have written, letting your brain corrode away, without using it much. I bet neurogenesis will never occur in such situations! Synapses will degenerate and die off and after a period of time, you become stupid! And not forgetting the meagre pay you are drawing at $5-6 bucks/hr.
My basic currently is a low $1100/mth. I started work end of the 1st week of May. My target for this 3 weeks will be $1800 take home at least! I will make it!!!
