Where I discuss: a schmuck salesman

by richard

so… i just had a guy from ward’s scientific visit me. he’s just thanking me for doing (some) business with them, and asking what i order from carolina (their competitor) and why i use them instead.
‘i get a 10% discount and free shipping’
‘ten percent? are you sure it isn’t five percent?’
‘yes’
‘wow’

anyhow.. he gave me some free stuff (a nice chicken developement poster, among other things) and then, as he was leaving, i got up to shake his hand and thank him for coming by… and says “holy &*$% you’re tall”.

great way to do business, isn’t it?
