I couldn't agree with you more. This google character has no idea how big of a mistake he made when he left our company. He no longer has job security and he is never going to have the "opportunity" for advancement like myself. I am proud that I wash cars sometimes. I know what it takes to run my branch like it was my own personal business. I guess I'm the smart one because I don't have to waste my personnel expenses for some low-life car prep who plans on stealing from me anyways. If google is in mortgages, im sure he is failing because everyone who i know who is in that line of work are getting offices shut down left and right. Yeah, I guess you could make a $5k commission one month but most of the time you won't. If you look at todays economy, you can gather that buying a home is not really the best investment. That's right. the market is going down and i bet this market will die by the next 6 months. Selling up may sound like a minimal sales practice but it contributes highly to the branch's profits. Life is about sacrifices. Sometimes I have to sacrifice a few things I loved for ERAC only because it will pay me back ten full in the long run. If only you realized the opportunity ERAC provides its employees. Oh yeah, and I do have a new car and I just bought some golf clubs. My mnager's job is next.
