Remember when you were a kid, you're taught and/or told to be honest and not lie? And then you grow up and see everyone constantly lying and deceiving others?
So it all comes down to this. It seems like the end of the road for me. It's like everything is my fault when taken from other people's perspective. Why? Because we are all for self preservation right? Rarely would we accept that we are wrong. Perhaps I am guilty, even if much less than the rest. I have my mistakes, sure like everyone else, but I do not lie and deceive others just to get something out of them.
Lately it's always me me me who's wrong like I never do anything right. It's always the other person who's right. Especially in front of other people, they always tell others how they are right and better than me at anything. Wow. How negative and low have stress and pressure taken people?
It wasn't always like this. At first, everything was good. Work was easy and fun. But then a major change at work came and now it's all stress, blaming and complaining and all that negativity I don't need. And they wonder why I don't listen to the deceitful things they say and do.
I don't do dirty, I dislike dishonesty and manipulation in all forms. As much as possible I do things in all honesty but now it's too blatant how different my behavior is in this career. It's like me against the world. It's always my word against others which shouldn't be the case. We are all one big team and yet it feels like they prefer that I just do everything they tell me to do even if that's not how I do things or some would rather take advantage of me. When you're always wrong in their eyes and ears because they're all the same, I see no point to correct them anymore. I have been judged by everyone when I do not even judge them for their behavior unless they become dishonest/manipulative with me first. Only now because it is kind of affecting how people see me. It's not a good picture at all.
Sales is a dirty world, second to politics and perhaps the police force too? What have our world come to? Money money money comes first and not the truth and well-being of the people. If you need rest, you're weak. If you don't show what you're doing, you're lazy. You "have to" be fake in order to be good in sales, it's either all a show to them or you have great results based on fooling and manipulating people. And they will look favorably at you if you're good at both. No wonder most people don't trust sales people. Most sales people in teams don't even trust each other. Ugh.
Generally, in this kind of environment, sales people tend to fake activities in order to produce numbers due to pressure and stress. If you do not comply to the rules of fakery, you're fcked. If you do not subject yourself to going over your limit, you're fcked. Fake it 'til you make it eh?
Or it's gonna be: No proof = you're wrong. In court, if there is no clear evidence of your innocence you're a criminal or you're the wrong one. At work (in sales or business), it's always about results. To most people, no matter what you do that's all that's important. You're not contributing a lot to the sales quota? Well then bye bye and good riddance or do something about it even if you're tired from working too much.
I'm not one to force, dupe or manipulate people into buying just so I have a sale. I've done everything I can without much rest for several months. No I'm not perfect and I don't do what goes against what I feel is right to do. It may be right to them but if it's not for me then I do what's right for me.
So then "good riddance" to me eh? Hah. Thanks but no thanks to working in a place I had expected would be all great until everything changed. Too much stress and pressure without enough rest is just not for me.
See you somewhere else where I can still sell properties and/or more. Hehe.
XOXO,

Pff, come on sales isn't a dirty business at all you are just too lazy doing it right.
I mean you obviously you do not understand the business of fooling people, this isn’t manipulation. And it’s fair if you are selling it at a higher price and give 99% of that money back to the company just to get a thank you, isn’t it.
Just kidding.
These people are bastards I hate it! I am not working in the travel agency anymore. Like you said they can’t stand each other they do not trust each other. Do not do it, there are different ways...even if you earn less, but it is honest like most family businesses are! Customer=happy and if, but only if he is happy you can get a profit, and provide customer service!
The thing is that they are always getting some customers because there is still one who is licking the ass…. (maybe this makes no sense in English, but I hope that you know what I mean)
Same in the makeup industry, in 99% of the companies aren’t any customer services; it is just about "sell, sell, sell the stuff...!!!! Don’t care about the customer just sell him lots of things so that the company can survive and make even more money out of thin air.
I really hate these people, that’s exactly, what I told you last time.(Well at least I tried ;) ) I want to change things that’s why I am still here, but you can see it on Steemit as well, but what I noticed over the last weeks is that at least you can see who is doing it so that you can ignore these people… And I think if more "good" or "honest" people are joining the platform we could make a change. 😊

Greetings,
Really nice to remember being a kid.
It is really frustrating to be in this situation.
This is how the corporate world survives. "no money, no honey"
I believe there are still companies, who are looking for people with integrity.

But... But... I'm not a kid. 😂😂😂
There should be more companies that prefer people with integrity and operate their business with such too. 😊

I hear you and I can relate. I never had the heart for sales especially the practice of doing it with the intent to deceive just so people will buy what you have to offer. According to one promotional event that I attended, in order to succeed, you must focus on how to make money even to the point of forgetting your family and their needs. It's all about money and it's sad.
Then again we have our own beliefs and convictions. We have different opinions about what is right and wrong. I guess be with those who share the same ideals and principles as you.
Naks... Ang seryoso ntin. Hahaha.
