It's not fair!
on: January 17, 2011, 09:25:41 PM
Just after picking up my press pass for SHOT today I happened to stumble across a private room with a huge Gerber banner out front.  Intrigued I went in, and there were lots of folks I didn't know sitting there.  I was approached by one of them who asked me who I was, and told me it was a sales meeting, and as a result, I wasn't able to stay.

As Bender once put it:

Quote
This is the worst kind of discrimination- the kind against me

They were very polite about it, and he invited me to check out their booth, to which I replied I already had an appointment!

Oh well, maybe next time!  :D

Bah, who wants to sit in on a sales meeting anyhow? :P They just talk about margins and goals and target numbers and such. :P

You need to go find the engineers and hang out with them! :tu:

Agreed  :tu:

Were there all suited up? I would hope that even the sales guys of these types of companies are passionate about their products and are outdoorsy types :D

Should have just sat down at the table and made yourself look important. If anyone asks just tell them it's none of their business if they wanna keep their job lol.
