> That being said, the "I had limited options" is in my opinion a bullshit excuse, specially for this specific situation.

I had irregular work waiting tables, doing MLM door-to-door shit which scammed me out of my money, I had to borrow money to make ends meet. Sales was the first consistent full time job I got that paid slightly over minimum. I did it a few years and hated it, then got into tech.

I'm just stating if you're over six figures and you're doing sales and using manipulative tricks like OP you're not a good person. You're claiming this is only because I stopped doing it and yes; its because I stopped doing it. I'm sure I'd find some excuse that its ok if I still was; but that's why I wanted to stop, cause I didn't want to reach for the excuse.

Here's a thought; still do sales but don't manipulate other people to flog them shit, especially if it isn't the right choice for them.
