Belated happie birthday to Kimmy Hong *v*



Giena and I are starting on our interview training soon, just had one session this Tuesday. Was almost as what I've imagined, an hour plus long meeting with Ivan, listening to him talk, taking notes etc etc......

My mind tends to wanders off every 5 minutes...not that I'm building castle in the air, but its like...so deja vu! It's so true that all bosses says the same thing. As long as you're doing sales, its more or less the same idea. Since I've been through the same thing over and over again, I ought to be familiar with it already, but the ironic part is, the more I get in touch with these sales concept, the more I have to admit that I'm really not a PR person.

And well, a good salesperson gotta do lots of PR. Lots of sweet-nothings. Lots of white lies.



Long ago when I was still doing part-time with Celia Loe, I have seen top sales representatives exclaiming ridiculous remarks at rich potential customers. My ex-senior actually highly complimented a yellowish-skin tone aunty with bulgy belly in a body-hugging silky mustard-colour dress "beautifully shaped", "fits very well, you look amazing!" while I stared at her with a "i cant believe that you're saying that" look.



I've got loads to learn.

Meanwhile, I'm struggling (with acceptable difficulty) to grasp a balance between my obstinate beliefs and my strive to improve. Dont waste your effort in trying to help me out cos Capricorns have horns.
