Hey. Not all used car dealers are phoney! |

But you don't sell the cars do you? Just do the finance and flog them the extras?

Good point. It was an unfair comparison.

Yes but he didn't say used car "salespeople", he tarred the whole dealership with that brush 
Little less of the "just do"... that's like saying HR just do meetings.  |

LOL
Depends on the HR person, but we do do a lot of meetings. 
I don't do monotone powerpoint presentations Culprit, you're thinking of accountants, IT and Engineers. (Sales people do really energised powerpoint presentations that don't actually mean anything)
P4S, when you look at socially useful functions different occupations perform, HR people are ahead of Lawyers.

That would be, what, ahead in the sense of being further down the corridor on the walk towards the rotating knives? |
