That may be a prevailing attitude of the masses but that shows that you aren't desperate enough. My guess is that being a car sales person means you spend most of your time waiting, not selling. Why not use that time toward a constructive end. Why should any car on your lot be without an "expert" in it. After all, it is on your lot.
I remember seeing a program in TV about Japan. They showed a man standing in a side walk of a very busy intersection. He was yelling out loud about all sorts of petty and embarassing details about his life. Apparently, he was a new hire for a large company (I think it was a life insurance company or something) as a saleman. This was one of their "training" courses designed to help them develop a thick skin. This is an example of the reason why Japan has become the country it is now. It's a country with very little natural resources -- and the only natural resources it has in abundance is people and what they can do. Somehow I get the sense that if was in a Chrysler dealer in Japan someone would know a lot about Crossfires. Hey, that's just me...
