For those who wait...
Today I was surprised to say the least when my boss called me and my co-worker to his office. Accompanied by our salesmanager they sat down opposite to us with a grim look at their faces. I knew that sales the last two months practically had been non-existant and expected the worse. But then they came clean, saying that maybe it wasn't the right project for us, maybe we should have had more people on it, they didn't know why it went wrong...only thing that was certain, was that we weren't the ones to blame. This was confirmed when they put our best salesman on the job for a week to see where the beast was shot. Nothing, not one single penny rolled in. The fact that me and my collegue had known for several weeks suddenly became reality for those on top aswell. Suddenly, what seemed as a great failour and a bit embarassing on our part became a great effort. You see, if the best senior salesman couldn't bring in the cash, how the hell could two nineteen year olds do it? The fact that we never gave up now have become something that we're respected for now. And that's a goood feeling!
