The post by SonnyPage made best of the fool.
Mathew saw it, wandered in and replied with this:
===================================================
To be perfectly honest, I wandered across from the "Best Of" list - but I've got a story that helps illustrate the point, I think.

First: I work in real estate title. On the title and closing end. I've got a real estate background, and already have the necessary class time...all I need to do to get my broker's license is pass the test. I've thought about it, but never very seriously. Because....

The other day, I ordered Chinese delivery from a nearby restaurant. I live in an apartment complex, and I'd bet they deliver over here quite a lot.

The delivery "boy" was older than me and included his Real Estate Sales card in the bag with our food!!!!

Now, I don't mind hustling and working - and I've waited a lot of tables breaking into my professional career - but....

If I've got to shark the orders being sent to the apartments so that I can deliver Chinese food to my prospective clients - well, then, I just don't want to sell real estate for a living.

One of those things, I guess.
