One of the reasons I left was this one - of course one of many.
I wasn't a salesman..if I was I surely wouldn't have been doing dish installs and would be at some car dealership.
You can't force metrics on these things cause not everyone buys that over priced junk.
You wasted time trying to pitch it when you weren't paid by the hour you were paid by the job. Every minute counted to get to the next appointment so you could get home at a decent time.
They didn't care nor will they ever.
I've got a upgrade coming soon... I feel for the guy coming for that aspect but otherwise he should enjoy a nice clean upgrade with all new RG6 solid copper runs all labeled and ready to go just needing the LNB swapped, node and boxes swapped.
If only all mine were like that but then you finish early making a good days pay and they just dropped more on ya cause they kept leaving the "UPGRADE WINDOW" open on new calls..what a stupid stupid company.
Ohh I took a ton of tips.. even a few as high as $100 just to get a out of the norm job done that was WAYYY out side of code but otherwise they were turned down several times.
I never trusted the customer to stay quiet about it but didn't care either...hardly nobody was going around checking anything around here at the time.
I once ran cable off a telephone pole way up in a wooded right away from a dish mounted on a board in the air over the a guys house.. it was the ONLY way to work and the cable to get laid without damage.
Cable co does it all the time so who cares.
