I can imagine this thread about 200 years ago:
"Slaves from black Africa. 100% Commission. Selling to plantations across the Americas. Not the easiest job ever, but it was rewarding. Now selling coolies, that takes some doing but more fun sampling the wares."
It's been a long time since I watched it, but wasn't Glengarry Glen Ross spot on, "I'll tell you what the hard part is... it's to stop thinking like a goddamn slave"? Try big sales esp outside the USA. The pregame self talk goes from Think light to Think white. You would think being alpha isn't enough to make the sale in IT, but it appears the more technical the subject, the more gullible the mark. There is a sucker born every minute.
