    Default The Trials and Tribulations of Sales....

    Kid calls, asked if we carry a certain semi-decent/semi-shitty product. I explain why we don't carry it but do carry some of the parts. Then asks what pistol lowers we have in stock. In the middle of explaining there isn't such a thing and why, he says, "look, I didn't call to be educated by you. Just tell me what you have in stock."

    Well, here's where it gets difficult...

    Option A: "You obviously don't know what you are talking about. Maybe you should shut your cock-hole and listen."
    Option B: "Come on by, lets have this discussion in person."
    Option C: Click
    Option D: "Have a nice day." Click

    Now... Those of you that know me would think I chose Option A. But no. I'm the older, kinder, more gentle version of SA Friday. I went with Option D.

    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    If he had said, "Look, BRO, I didn't call to be educated...." would that have changed the option you selected?

    Should have sold him a pistol lower for $20 more than a rifle one.

    There is such a thing. Dunno why, but Aero makes one.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of

    The model name nor engraving on it mean anything.

    It's sold as an "other" if not assembled into a complete rifle or pistol. And regardless of the engraving, it can be made into a rifle or pistol.

    So you could have just told him you have plenty in stock and that he could swing by and check them out and see which one he wanted.

    No need to make the guy feel stupid and embarrassed because he is ignorant of things.

    A customer cam. I like it. I bet he could post up some wonderful conversations that nobody would believe without video proof.
