  1. I had to save this one in favorites. This is legendary stuff lol
  2. Ah that's classic. Makes me excited to be heading back home to the Bronx to visit family in a few weeks.
  3. God bless the internet and those who make random epic stuff like this for us to enjoy
  4. It's funny how these type of sistas. Also wanna cry about black women not being protected. As if these types don't invite most of the danger and problems in their lives. If he was a dude that had no chill and had time for dat shit? She then be shouting "YoU aRgUiNg WiTh a FeMaLe" Looking around to the men in the area "NoNe oF yA gOnNa HeLp???"
  5. No argument there. I will say though. It's much less evident that a company lacks these qualities. In say my line of work or similar. Because there's way more on the line than just money. So even if management has a ends justifies the means approach. Most of us mechanics will not cross that line. And will challenge management or another mechanic of need be. But if its mainly just about money? Then yeah management has to enforce a work culture of integrity or people will do whatever to get that commission.
  6. I worked 2 commission jobs when I was 18 and 19 And I can say for a fact. These jobs are the epitome of attitude reflects leadership. If leadership prioritizes numbers above all with little to no overseight? Oh yeah there will be fuckery among the Salesforce. But on the flip side. If you have a company that actually values good relationships with their customers, and their reputation? They'll make sure their people are not on that type of time.
  7. Damn that's rough man. Sorry that happened. My point is simply. Don't go hard being a company man. Never that. Go hard to get yours. And make moves from there to do your own thing. I wasn't on this type of time in my 20s. Lord knows I wish I was. But I'm on it now. Being loyal to a company that after 2 decades of service will give you a pension and take care of ya? That's been dead for a while. Most of us are in a position where we gotta make others money to get ours. But don't stay there if you don't want to be there. We gotta secure our own futures.
  8. How much you made though? Not dismissing your layoff. That does suck. But did you get yours though?
  9. Why do you open your mouth to go full stupid? Show me where I said I won't talk to a woman I'm not related to or with. It's amazing how someone says something clear as day. ( I'm not trying to hear boyfriend issues from a woman I'm not related to ) And you go and literally hear what you want. The hell is wrong with you? Imagine you in the drive thru at a restaurant. God what a frustrating experience for a customer that'd be.
  10. Oh yeah I learned that. Job hoping resulted in me getting raises. Not sticking it out for years. That's back in the days of our grandparents. And unfortunately there's so many actual legal ways for the rich and their budinesses to avoid paying taxes. It's stupid. Let alone all the off the book methods.
  11. Don't get it twisted. I have no love for big corporations. But if you got the chops? Commission based pay blows hourly pay out the water. You can't low ball me. If I'm Killin it? I'm Killin it. I get a portion of that sale. Not an hourly rate. There is the risk of your pay isn't guaranteed for showing up and trying. You have to produce. But if you can? You make bank. Assuming you have a good employer. "I've worked at places that had layoffs after their most successful year ever. If companies want me to work hard they need to fork over the dough. Working hard gets you jack shit at most companies" Working hard for a low hourly rate is lame yes. Working hard for a direct piece of the pie every time you make a sale, land a client etc? That's different
  12. Fair enough to each their own. At least you ain't making up some lame excuse about not wanting to put money in the corporate overlord's pocket
  13. That's why you have something going on the side. Those who I've known in commission based work? When it's time to make money? They go hard and either put money to the side to weather the slow season and or hold a part time job hourly job. Once they get to a point they are Killin it in their commission job? They focus on it full time. And make enough to where it's nothing to put money away for the slow season. If I was 20 again? I definitely would've gotten into real estate as an agent. Or hell no reason I can't do it now
  14. Depends. Some are definitely some bullshit. But jobs in a legit commission based sales position? Those people make bank if they git gud at it. Jobs that offer commission and hourly wage together are usually bullshit. Because those jobs. Tend to rarely have opportunities to actually earn commission
  15. "I can't handle a job where I actually have to get shit done to get paid. Instead of being able to do light work and just take up space for 8hrs. And get paid" You ain't fooling nobody with all that "screw u greedy corporate fat cats!" talk.
  16. What was that burger chain. That tried to compete with Mc Donald's quarter pounder. By introducing a 1/3 pound burger near the same price. But us dumbass Americans thought 1/3 was less than 1/4. Thus a rip off. So it flopped?
  17. I was just about to post this. Gangsta's paradise is one of the hardest realist and mainstream successful songs every made.
  18. Ok invest in social intelligence? Because being a genius when it comes to things or making money. Doesn't mean you know people. That is true
  19. Gotta also invest in the intelligence stat. So that they knows if money is how he gets her? She ain't his. It's just his turn. Act accordingly.
  20. Looks like a pizza pie ate another pizza. Then took a dump on a plate
  21. So went out to grab some food. And I get approached by an older sista with two kids. I wanna say they're her grandkids. Kids clothes look pretty worn and she looking kinda rough too. She introduces herself and just flat out puts her pride to the side and asks for help paying for her extended stay for the week. She said she'll pay me back however she can but don't want to do anything nasty. I'm kinda taken back. Like damn. Went and got her the remaining money she needed. She was shocked that I actually came back. And nearly in tears. Told her she don't gotta pay me back. Just make sure the kids have a roof and eat. That humbled the fuck outta me. It really is hard out here. Getting your own and maintaining is not easy. If you have an income, decent roof, food, clothes, some entertainment and people that care about ya? Just appreciate it. Edit: I've done a lot of walmart grocery deliveries. And some where big orders to motels. I heard of motel families. But to actually see people order large amounts of groceries. Kids playing in motel parking lots, and people cooking for whole families in there. Mind blowing.
  22. I'm gonna go back to watching watermelons flow down stream. And forget I ever read this.
  23. What is it about those watermelons flowing down that stream. That is just so pleasant and euphoric?
