How can you possibly stand up for the low life drug dealer types? And how can you say they don't have a defeatist attitude? They take the easy road out and try to become Fiddycent. I'm not ragging on all drug dealers, because without them I wouldn't be high. I am ragging on the fucking wiggers who try and act tough with their sideways hats and Phat Farm hoodies.
If you think it's easy to be successful and to build solid customer rapport in a very competitive market, obviously you haven't been smoking weed long enough. It has nothing to do with ethics because the guys who are most successful at dealing drugs are the most ethical and do good business. They are the ones that last, while the ones who only do it for the hip-hop image fail.

If you think you work any harder than dealers by washing dishes, you are wrong. What do you think they do, just sit there and wait for people to come? If you want your business to grow, you have to expand your customer base, you have to market your product, you have to get good product consistantly by networking. These are all skills you can apply to a real profession.

If you think you don't carry away any marketable skills after you sell anything, you are absolutely wrong. Let's take a look at the responsibilities of a sales manager:

· develop and manage outside sales team

· new business development

· business-to-business sales

· achieving sales goals

· accountability

Any skill you develop regardless of where you developed them can be marketable in the future, you don't have to necessarily learn them from a job.

If this post if any indication, you probably left half your marketable skills off your resume based on ignorance.
