很多业务员认为自己很努力工作,我会说:“你很努力吗?可是你并没有讲话讲到嘴巴流血呀。”
我天生乐观,记得小时候跟别人打架,打到上下排牙齿都掉了,妈妈看到我的模样,心疼地哭了起来,可是我依旧很快乐。妈妈不解地问我为什么?我说:“牙齿都掉了,我从今以后就不用刷牙了。”
从事行销业,我们没有摆臭脸的资格,每天都要笑脸迎人。微笑是会传染的,只要你带着微笑,别人也会对你微笑,气氛就会跟着改变,所以人要尽可能地微笑,把欢乐传给别人。
煮锅绿豆天天吃
我的第一份工作是在福特汽车当会计,工作起来驾轻就熟,可是我做得并不快乐。我宁可多绕点远路,也不要在一个我不喜欢的地方工作一辈子。亲友听说我离职了,都觉得很不可思议,但我认为如果不能找到适才适性的工作,这辈子绝对不会快乐。
科学家会发明东西,艺人会表演唱歌,那是他们的专长,那我的专长是什么?我左思右想,发现我的专长就是福特汽车最不喜欢我的地方——我很爱讲话。
老板常瞪着我说:“Leon,我是雇你来工作,不是来讲话的。你可不可以不要讲话,不要影响别人上班?”
当我面试新工作时,我告诉每个老板我喜欢讲话,他们一听都笑了。再问我除了讲話还有没有其他要求?I say I don't like complex administrative work, so I hope there's less of it, let me talk from morning till night, and the benefits are the best. Every boss heard and laughed.
Although I always couldn't find a job that suits me, but I never compromise until my pocket only had $27 left.
My friends saw me in such a state, jokingly said to me: "You don't have to eat McDonald's anymore, eating like this will quickly spend all your money. I suggest you cook a big pot of green bean soup every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner."
I really bought a big bag of green beans and cooked one huge pot of soup for three or four days.
Lecturing until my mouth bleeds
I applied to 300 companies; each boss thought I was just joking. Only one CEO of a securities company took me seriously: "Leon do you really mean that? You want to find a job where you can talk all day long? A job with almost no administrative tasks? A high salary?"
He hugged me tightly excitedly saying "That's exactly what I'm looking for! How did someone like you appear now? All applicants here claim they work hard or excel academically but none get to the point." He gave me an assignment - every day make 500 calls. Starting at 6:30 PM and finishing at around 2 AM the next morning he knew how many calls i made because he recorded them on his phone recorder rule is if i didn’t make 500 calls by midnight i couldn’t go home after making the last call heart pounding fast hoping the person would be an insomniac who would answer my call once upon time when making final call recipient spoke unclearly telling him about myself (www.lz13.cn) later found out he came seeking revenge because sleeplessness ate two times before finally falling asleep which woke up again due to my talking loudly breaking glasses everywhere then shouting loudly when discovered in office causing panic among employees.
Every day without stopping talking often accidentally biting tongue bleeding while talking till mouth bleeds Many businesspeople think they're very hardworking asking for raises while lecturing others on their speaking skills saying “Are you working hard enough not lecturing till mouth bleeds?”
