No sales job ever paid per time spent on phone

Having participated in the marketplace for a while, I am positive this is not true. Have you ever met a sales guy? They love executing on nonsensical strategies.

There's a lot of dumb money still out there. The term "dumb money" doesn't do it justice. We should call it "braindead money" instead.

Have you ever worked in a call center?

Medicare Part D was or is a program to outsource prescription insurance for Medicare recipients under Bush 2. It created an absurd Matroska nest of contracts. I worked for a staffing agency to be call center agent at a company that ran pop-up call centers for various insurance companies operating under this program.

I was told my calls were monitored but never got any feedback whatsoever
