Got fired for “thinking too much”

From feb 2021 i have worked as a door to door sales man, as we can all agree its a annoying job for both me and the people i talk to. But it was the only job i could get. ​ I was really good at the job, because if your just nice to them and dont assholes and ask people who do really need the product you will fill out 9 forms a week. ​ One problem with the system is that i need homeowners (aka asshole boomers) to get paid, we cant sell to renters for some reason. so i could give them the sales speech then find out they are renting so for some reason i cant get paid for them. So i found a smart way to make the business for affective and i dont have to waste time with people that the company refuses to…

I was really good at the job, because if your just nice to them and dont assholes and ask people who do really need the product you will fill out 9 forms a week.

One problem with the system is that i need homeowners (aka asshole boomers) to get paid, we cant sell to renters for some reason.

so i could give them the sales speech then find out they are renting so for some reason i cant get paid for them.

So i found a smart way to make the business for affective and i dont have to waste time with people that the company refuses to sell to.

ill ask at the door if they rent or not. This way i can make more forms quicker and wont be annoying.

One week i got a unlucky streak of renters and i was called into my bosses office about it.

I told him about the new strategy, and he went crazy at me, saying about “just sticking to the script” like i was some kind of robot.

I tried to fight back with how much time this saves the customers, but he didnt care about the customers. I got fired on the spot.

If you work as a sales man never try to have ideas.
