it's the end of my 3-day promoter experience. and golly, it was a mini-rollercoaster ride!
-some gems.
"you speak too fast... you pooor thing."
(when i started mixing up brushing your
teeth
and brushing your
mouth
.)
"you need a mint."
what the ^$#%$%&%#^$%
. that left me severly distraught. qiao had a tough time convincing me that n-o-t-h-i-n-g was smelling funny about me.
"do you know how rude you are?? she was talking to me when you took that away!"
(its the same weird lady who said the above two sentences, just that the second dialogue was to yiqiao when she had to borrow the toothbrush from me for her own demonstration. but seriously, there was nothing wrong yiqiao did, and that lady is just plain weird plus rude.)
a man who asked about every single gritty detail for at least HALF AN HOUR, and in the end, when he finally decided to buy a set, unloaded our entire pyramid of boxes, in the attempt to get one without a single dent. Aaron concluded that he's got a mental problem, like overly obsessive about nitty gritty details.
and here's the good stuff. (alright this part will be slightly on the haolian-ing side, so if you cant stand that, or if you're yiqiao
(hahahhaha.)
dont read.)
"you little devil! you're goood!"
aaron was in awe of me when the customers started buying. -smirks.
"actually you know what, ill get a set now because you've been so nice."
a kind old man who appreciated.
"3 sets please."
i swear the
ka-ching
in my head went off so loud the customer heard it.
"i was here yesterday too and she's a really good promoter!" (to aaron)
you know im starting to have second doubts about posting this but i swear im just overwhelmed because i haven't heard praises of myself for a very long time. this ego-ism will fade after a while.
and that's that. after the very last sale, (which was to myself! i found the sonicare toothbrush so good after promoting it to others, that i had to have one too.) me and qiao walked away from the oldwitch next door, all the way to yami yogurt and later, gelare's.
Geewhiz.
