[QUOTE="KoennenTiger, post: 4257679, member: 73154"] I still occasionally turn in a sales lead. I mean I've done it within the last year. I wonder why I did, as does my wife. They ship quite a bit, and I give them my normal service, which is 150% above the rest of the guys around me. I make sure they are happy. But I've passed over so many. I ignore so many. Why bother? My local low level sales guy was one of my old part timers. I know all the higher level sales. They're :censored:. A few years back I went hard on an account that exploded and is now moving just under a thousand a day. With usps. The sales guy never called. He lied to them. I tried to clean it up I see them every single day, I know all of them, I know their kids, I know their families, I know their stories. I almost ruined my own personal reputation with people I know by recommending this company!!! But I have zero time to even stop and talk anymore. I'm just tired of being told how much over allowed I am because I have to use my hand cart as I'm delivering industry not amazon. And I have no more drive. Do I want another pickup to go over 9.5 again and never see my own family again until they get tired of my action and give a little of the work I create for ups to the driver next to me? Who will then complain to me every day? So that my wife can order a UPS purse from the ups catalogue? Yeah this is my career and yeah I kinda sorta at least used to want ups to succeed. But what does that mean? I get more work and less time to do that work? I, ME, talk a customer into what I do, the service I bring, and it explodes into a huge customer, and now I get to hand my wife the :censored:ty garbage ups branded product book and tell her she can order a bunch of worthless garbage products with the points I get for being amazing? We never even used them. Get my kids even more little "$50" mini ups trucks? A shirt that says ups and ups tells me that's fifty bucks? Thank you koennen tiger for all your hard work, for making and keeping that customer so happy, for building a personal relationship with them, now we will ignore their calls, and ignore their needs and wants, and depend on your to fulfill them, and now you will see your own kids even less. But they will have a "$50" little wind up ups truck to play with while you're doing that pickup. [/QUOTE]
