retoor89002dTrue, that's how it works. That's also why I wasn't that suitable for working in computer shop. The repairing was great, but the selling... Way to honest for that. For example, I always asked to customers if they had kiddo's and such to take in mind if games would be played and stuff and told true price of a computer handling that and often not leading to a sale. Well, that's not appreciated, sell whatever the customer can afford, regardless if he would be happy with it it, is the thing they want. Not for me.

@retoor same here. Also the reason why I‘m not allowed to write patch/update notes for the apps that I make :)

You know what I find truly despicable? Consultants who grossly over-sell worthless digital products.
Take a guy who throws together 2 text boxes and a list in Figma and calls it: "The disruptive platform that will solve all your problems at once today!". Are you fucking kidding me? Such an insult to people's intelligence.
There is a saying: "A salesman will sell you a dirty cloth for the price of a house".
