Had a sales manager try to throw me under the bus in a staff meeting today because they got bitched out by a client. Unfortunately for the sales manager, I keep all emails and was able to show clearly that I did exactly what the client wanted.
Never try to throw someone under the bus who keeps receipts. Just saying.
@GaryPoole Caution: when a sales department has someone prove they were in the wrong by having the receipts, the company gets rid of the person who keeps the receipts, because they think of you as an expense and the sales team as income-generation.
@AskTheDevil I’ve been with the company for over 15 years (through three sales managers) and am on the same level (we’re both department heads). Plus the GM sided with me on this one.
@GaryPoole Good. I just always advise _anyone_ to be cautious of any sales-team-driven shenanigans.
They don't think like we do.
; )
@GaryPoole drag em! 👊
