Yes, it is greed disguised as faux generosity unless you win but don't take the money on principles. This makes you not greedy but on the other hand an insufferable do gooder.
There is no win here, only smaller bites being taken out of your soul.:D Win this one or lose it, it's semi-irrelevant because occasionally these things come up, if you've been shafted you give less away, if it's all friendly then you get more / give more. |

Nothing better than the moral high ground, Scamp. Way more important than the short term money.

I got told on the sly that it's been suggested the other person thinks about the long term gain. I might come out of this with cash, with long term gain and a slither of moral elevation left. |

Probably why he said nothing a few months back when you tried to shaft him. He played you and worked in the background. Got to respect that.
Welcome to my world. Then, smartly waited until a deal came along and put my hand out. There are WAY too many arguments in recruitment (and other sales offices) over deals that aren't done / aren't going to be done / are miles from being done. If it was the other way round I'd have given 25%. Genuinely. Because I'd expect it (and currently do). We'll see how it plays out. |

You would think the funding/political investment world would be a little less back stabby.

All sales environments are. Where there's a deal, there's bonus. Who wants to share bonus? Not me.

I have my bonus written into my contract so I don't get into any unseemly schemozzles in work, but then again I am not competing against work colleagues. The more I get usually means the more they get.
I get my commission from doing my job. It's uncapped, it's based on what I do and directly linked to nothing but what I bring in. 40% seems a bit light sometimes though...:unsure: Same same but different. |
Re: Anyone fancy a beer?
Well I totally forgot so felt a little guilty when I remembered and came on here to find out what I missed.
Would be up for a beer before the summer. We are leaving for good after that. 10 years in the sandpit. Enough. It's been emotional and after a quarter of my life here, a little nervous moving on. |
