Hey everyone im back. So 2 months out of school i started a new job with a "Professional" marketing company called P&G marketing and they apparently were selling big named products to the public e.g Disney,Vivitar,Crayola which is true because i saw the products for myself but i was tied into a new division within the company and we were selling a car care product called FW1 or Fast wax 1 which was a wash and wax in a tin and was apparently HUGE in the states. So on my first week i made about 20-25 sales and my trainee manager thought i was a pretty cool guy infact to be honest i had 2 guys helping me and they were called Jack and Ian. Now on my 2nd week Not so good making the same old sales but then i came to i think it was tuesday which was my last day with the company but i did'nt know that. So i was told to go to the far side of manchester and do some pitching to customers at a texaco garage. And i was with another newbie called Robbie he was a nice guy but a snitch but i will get to that in a moment. Anyway here is the reason i got fired is because a man in white van pulls up and i went up to him to try and sell this product and he said something like " i would'nt think about doing that my lad" i say "why not?" and he goes because this my son is a military vehicle and if the army finds out what you've done they will slay you for it". Now at this point i burst out laughing at this customer think WHAT A TARD! and so we get kicked off the fuel station and had to go to our trainee managers area where he was selling. And Ian grabs robs and goes something like "How was amir today" or something like that and he really dropped me into and got the sack because of that ass. But i got the better winnings because he gave me his notepad with everthing he needed to know in order to teach others and i forgot to give it to him. so i still have that book well just blank pages the reszt of its in the bin and he would of probably had to start from scratch OWNED!.
Now 2 weeks after i get fired i found another job with a company called Communications Direct now this was based in the nice modern area of Salford (Harbour City) and in my first week i met so many cool people and they were called ,Chris,Bilal,Joe,Anthoney,Ryan,Kerry(who left on something like day 3,Amanda,Qasim, and err oh yeah not forgeting peter. now the only person i had a problem with was this peter guy the gayiest guy i have ever met now he was a nice guy to talk to but his voice was so annoying it was unbelivable and another problem with him was he was way way TOO OPEN about his sexuality and i had a problem with that and i tried to avoid him as much as possible but he clearly was Puff of the year 2006 no doubt about it. Anyway so we were given one weeks training and then after that week on our first official day we all got off to a great start and i got some sales early in the morning which i thought was impressive and so a few hours later at around 4pm if i can remember this guy comes running in to our office and goes "OKAY GUYS I WANT ALL 8 OF YOU TO LOG OFF AND HEAD TO THE 7th FLOOR PLEASE DO IT DO IT NOW PLEASE THANK YOU" HURRY UP" and so i thought are we this good that we get to go home early because our shift was supposed to be 9am-6pm.
So i am at the 7th floor we are all wondering what the hell is going on and then you've got anthoney complaining about the weather and talking about a vending machine. He was a jamaican guy very very funny and a really nice guy to talk to. so at about 4:30pm we heard this short fat welsh guy say "Can you all crowd round please all of you" "Our administrators from head office have told me that the manchester office is not making its target and we have been told to cease trading immediatly" at this point i was bang on the phone telling my dad what had happened there were quite a few on the phones as soon as he mentioned it and it was like being in a stock exhange or somthing. Then some other woman who was from the admin of head office said " We cannot say how sorry we are and those who are wondering about their pay you will have to make a claim off the goverment" and as soon as she said that! a huge ARGHHH was let off in the room and everyone had to collect their redundant papers. during while all that was happening a few people was heading downstairs and disconnecting computer moniters and mouses and completly dismantleing the office i would of took a moniter but instead i took a mouse for my laptop because i had no room in my bag.
so i headed home after all that but i e-mailed the guiness world records a day later to ask them if i am the youngest and fastest person made redundant in the world they said they will contact me within 4-6 weeks to confirm that. So who knows maybe it will.
So now i am going to go to norway for a while for vacation because im getting really annoyed about getting a job never keeping it for more than a month.
so i will keep you updated while on vacation and take some photos of my journey in norway,
Cya later
