Hello fellow DS-MAX suckers. Yep, they got me to. We can chastize these so called "owners" all we want, but they just don't care. And why should they? It is quite possibly the only "oppurtunity" where a twenty-two year old without post secondary education can viably run a business. Granted, I did have my days that were decent, but I always felt so bloody embarrassed ringing that stupid bell. This is incentive? No, This is insane! People do not need or want these peoducts. We were pitching restaurants that had changed ownership three times in the past month, pitching in areas where people could bareley afford to feed themselves let alone go out for dinner.
But, like the spineless puppets that they are, the owners/mangagers/what ever the hell they want to refer to themselves as, insist to "forget about it" and "follow the steps". Meanwhile they get to sit in their circa 1930's office all day taking on more stupid campaigns while I'm in an area that is clearly low rent (and I'm certainly not saying this to be a bigot, In fact I hate bigots so much, it makes me one) standing at a woman's door with three screaming children asking her how often she golfs?!? I felt ashamed of myself. I think cheap green fees are the least of her problems.
I will admit, this job was probably not for me. I went to university and got a degree in English and Communication. I now work for an Internet policy implementation company. I make great money, have great benefits and have purest faith in management. If anyone asked me to work Saturday now, I'm afraid I would have to laugh at them. I always get a kick out of seeing these young twenty something's "pitching" me for whatever crap they are selling. I simply ask "How many of these do you need before you get leadership?" They love hearing that.
If you can work for Ds max and be successful, great. Should you feel proud or take pride in what you do? No. And if you do, you might as well be working for the tobacco company as you have sold your soul to Satan. At the risk of sounding redundant, don't say I didn't warn you.
