"How many of you have never sold a car in your life?" the sales manager asked next. Another 15 or so raised their hands. "Get the fuck out" the sales manager said to them.

The handful of remaining potential salesmen were made to watch "Glengarry Glenross"

My client was the only one out of forty to be hired that day. They were absolutely brutal and continued to be brutal. I won't even mention the forced etiquette classes.
Jesus christ. Having been in sales for years thta sounds like my worst fucking nightmare.
