Another day - another resumeI hated my last sales job at financial services company. Money had been great, except that I was financing construction and industrial equipment and the economy turned. Well, not turned - stopped- home construction came to a halt. My sales numbers tanked, everyone slowed except our dept Suck Up. She kept getting plum accounts not affected by the recession. Layoff rumors were rampant and when I heard rumors of our division closing, I jumped ship. Right into the frickin' ocean without a life jacket I might add. Landed in manufacturing sales. Swell, I thought, I knew this business since I worked for a competitor a couple of years ago. Had the interviews, talked to their senior sales people. Really thought I did my homework on the company. During orientation and training, they were practically singing "Kumbaya", no expense spared at the Christmas party, I even received a small bonus for my short time there. Then reality set in. HARD. During a training class, we finished a few minutes early, so I went back to my temporary desk and checked my voice mails and chilled out for 10 mins, until my next class. At the end of the day, the HR manager wants to speak with me. No problem I thought. When I got to her office, she has me sit down and asks what I did with my time during the period training was finished "early". I had to explain what I did during approximately 12 minutes of free time. The next morning, my manager sends me an email and I have to list out for him what I did during the 12 minutes I stole from the company. I should have run away right there and then and never looked back. My calls are monitored as are emails. Our company VP gets a copy of each and every email received and sent out. He has asked me about an email before I have had a chance to read it. Now he's not cc'd on these emails mind you - he gets a secret copy! He also reads all our ACT notes (contact managment software), and will call a customer to dispute your comments without your knowledge and then call you on the carpet about it. I have been there 6 months and I'm not making my quota. Now just trying to see if it's best to leave this place off my resume entirely..... |
