Re: We are all Slave now.
So on FB, an Iraqui friend was talking about going to a new gym and being told there are 3 trainers, and that Mohammed is probably perfect. He had not mentioned a training goal.
I was reminded of something- This is one of those stories that sounds like I am asking for sympathy, but it is not. Just a weird place I was put in: so my BIL works at a car company, which means I get employee pricing. not free, but a fixed price so no need to haggle. For me buying a car is basically picking a model and color- I'm an easy sale- 10 years ago I went to a dealership and on the lot met a young black salesman (call him Joe) who was great- we basically finalized a deal- I came back two days later to finish it- and my salesman Joe called over the sales manager and another salesman (say Bob). I was informed that Bob was my actual salesman because the last car I got he helped me. I did not remember that and felt no loyalty to Bob. In fact I had a vague memory of having a problem the time before. Joe was great. I tried to catch Joe's eye because I was definitely up for saying he is my new guy, I didn't want Bob. But I had a real sense that would be Joe's last sale there- he seemed resigned to what they wanted to do. He walked away to greet a black couple on the lot. I was about to walk out, there are other dealerships, but would that end up screwing Joe too? What would you do?
