Misc My mid-east rant - Page 7

redbrian · 05-13-2008, 07:43 PM

This rant is on everyone coming to the US from the mid-east, over the last two years I have had to call on, an avg. of 5 customers a month who were born somewhere in the mid-east.

With out fail every sales call goes the same way; they want my equipment and services for free and don’t want to sign a contract.

They do not keep their word after an agreement is reached nor do they want to accept the terms of the contract they have reluctantly signed.

I had one guy want to call off a deal over a measly $24 over a two year contract……I pointed out to him he was pissing and moaning over a couple of pennies a day, didn’t care had to have that discount.

Worked out a great deal on 7 Shell stations, I gave them special pricing if they gave me all 7 Shell stations.

We put the system in the first one, the screwed me on the other 6.

Now I did get a good laugh at the tribe who screwed me on the Shell Stations, the Parvin and 29/35 Station got robbed shortly after the free system was put in place.

A couple of amateur thief’s backed a pick up through the store front in an attempt at stealing an ATM, fortunately for the owners the chain broke…..unfortunately the free security alarm did not trip and the video was of such poor quality it was worthless.

To make it even funnier, I called them a couple of days latter and asked if they were ready to put in a good system…..no they informed me the guy who put in the piece of crap was going to fix it for free……had to tell them free crap is still crap.

most of the asian culture does not name their kids by throwing pots and pans down the stairs and use the sounds it makes as names.

I don't understand the t-shirt in the ad about halfway down the page. Can someone explain it to me, because I think it's dirty and I want to think dirty thoughts about the model wearing the t-shirt.

the girl in the dikfore shirt?

Her face says maybe not yet 18. The puppies scream something totally different. They want squeezed and to be used as dirty pillows.

Every culture has different ideas about how to do business. Some parts of the world don't regard what we in the West would call cheating someone as dishonest. Some cultures feel differing levels of obligation to keep their word depending on whom their word was given to.
