I'm driving home from this amazing weekend (read last post) when I get this voicemail. It's my manager. Ok. I know I got snowed in, he's probably calling to chew me out cause I'm in Redding and I work in 3 hours in LA. Whatever. So I listen to the message.
"Jeff, man, I got some bad news. Sandeep is making me relieve you of your duties at T-Mobile. You and Joey are both terminated as of today. I need your keys to the store or we will take 400 dollars out of your paycheck. I'm sorry, man, just, uh.... just call me."Thanls Omar. I freaking put in two weeks notice and I'm THAT bad that you need to just let me go? I was a little bit irritated, but hey, I haven't met my quota for sales. Then again, no one has. Wait a minute. So, I get to thinking about why I haven't met my quota. Let's see, I could blame it on the week vacation I took at Thanksgiving to go see the girl of my dreams, but I won't. I'm actually going to go ahead and say it's because I work in Laguna Hills Mall. Quite possibly the only mall in Northern America with no music store, no electronics store, and the highest concentration of Cell Phone stores. Let me go ahead and name off all the providers in the mall: 4 T-Mobile dealers, 3 Sprint dealers, 3 Verizon dealers, 2 AT&T dealers, 2 Cingular dealers, and 2 Nextel dealers. 16 freaking Cell phone dealers. Did I mention we are seriously half a block away from Leisure World, the biggest retirement village in SoCal? So, despite that I sold three phones my first day and that I can't lie about service like everyone else in my store, I got canned. And now my manager won't return my phone calls. Thanks again T-freaking-Mobile!
That sufficient Cody?
