:rolleyes:

Pretty condescending attitude for someone who profits off of nothing but selling, like a vulture waiting for his turn at the carcass.  Oh wait, it's you.

Retail sales.  100% of my job is selling-

I hate selling shit. Buying, too, though nowhere near as much.

Everyone's job involves "selling" even if that activity is strictly related to "selling" those around you that you are the best person for that job.

I sell death to America's enemies.

I work in support for hospitals so there is some selling as hospitals advertise their services, doctors, and the grades they get from government and industry auditors.

It's surprising to finally see Siegy admitting to selling military secrets to the Chinese.

Not really. No amount of "selling" talent will convince me that a supplier is good if they can't meet delivery deadlines, or adjust their prices. Same for any colleague.  You can bullshit all you want but in a job like mine where skill directly translates into machines/money/time your image can only get you so far.
