LOL that is hysterical. First of all, you don't take it from an employee that they are the "best". And why would you not bring your best employee's to the show (perhaps I will ping Mike to ask him seeing that he said it lol). It sounds to me that someone is being fed a lot of horseshit (if this situation is not hypothetical of course). You don't bring half-assed employee's to a show (if you are even stupid enough to employ them in the first place) You bring people that can get business and who know what they are doing.

It's amazing what people can drum up in their own minds, there are a lot of "Legends" in this industry (Legends in their own minds that is). Besides, your best employee's don't get fired for lame shit like that anyway, no matter who the company is. Dead weight is everywhere and what makes them a semi good sales person is the fact they can make you believe they are number one even when they're not, until it's time to prove themselves. I have seen this happen a lot.
