    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    I kind of doubt it. I think it's personal, and he just got the manager/trainer position. Either way he will be gone soon. I got a customer to fall asleep on a bed while I romanced his wife and the guy couldn't even close the deal. They waited some 20 min just to talk to a sales guy too. But really Sean, as we have talked about, this is a job that will make money and make it easier to get into another job. Maybe I will take promotions here, but most likely I will use it to find a better fit. The down time is also enough that I can learn some tech or business degree and use that as leverage also.

    That is my assumption also. I was the old trainer and did the job for longer. Obviously under a different branded technique, but the experience I have is pretty rich. This job is a bit of a joke job. Not that it doesn't pay well and I don't take it seriously...... more that the money is TOO good for lack of talent needed. It is a joke in that it is so easy to make good money for not a lot of effort. MN is a tough market, way worse than any other place, but there are still guys in 6 figure land. Not too shabby for the small amount of work. In the home and garden or home remodeling expo, one guy made about 22k in 3 days or so....

    I should clarify.... I was late. By less than a minuite. Then he mentioned we needed to not be early or late and he needed extra time in the store. We talked about how we have 5 min to punch in etc etc. So I arrived within the 5 min and he called me out on being late again.... Well the other FNG never even showed up for day 3 of training. My guess is he didn't get a good deal of confidence from the trainer. He kept asking if they woukd fire him if he couldn't sell right away. Anyway I think I am done with that trainer, and either way, he is moving to Tucson soon I believe so I hope to leave that drama shit behind. If it is indicative of the culture and environment I want nothing to do with it. I will just hurt for a B to B job where I can network and build relationships and train people on product. That is where I shine the most, and what I am best suited for.

    Why not man?J Well.... it really comes down to one dbag. But I am a little tired of people like him. Before I even started I needed to fax something in and it wouldn't go through at a kinkos. So I went to a store to send it in. The guy there was aloof and an ass when I asked how to use the multi fax. I didn't want to break it by just pushing buttons. He menioned he was a trainer and that moment I prayed I didn't get him. First 3 days... I got him. On day one he held me back saying I was influencing the new guy to my old selling techniques. I told him I specifically tried not to and felt horrible and asked if he could tell me when I did that. He said he couldn't remember a specific time but I did it a bunch of times and that it was wrong. Great trainer right? Then some other dumb shit. I asked him to confirm the date he said yes, then I sent an email to the boss... wrong date. He said I was late when I wasn't.

    Me neither. Takes a lot more than a half liter of vodka to get me tipsy for that long.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    You guys ever have one of those days where you don't have beer and so you make a vodka soda and lime to work up your nerves to do some car work, and then realize that 2/5 of vodka may be too much because you have to pick up your wife in a few hours to go see a lawyer about the non profit you are supposed to be running?

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Speaking of exhaust,I must be running lean and dirty. My exhaust is doing terrible terrible things. Fast food 2 days of training then just some crackers for 6 hours on Sunday did not do this body good. Definitely gagged the wife and not the fun way.
