    I want to make a short comment about sales people ignoring customers
    who seem to lack potential.  Sales people who do this are shooting
    themselves in the foot. I know several examples of why this is not
    cool, but I will share just my favorite. 

    When I was a kid, I knew an older man, friend of the family. He was
    a farmer and wore overalls, t-shirt, and conductor's hat every day
    of his life. This sweet man gave me a silver dollar and a peppermint
    candy every time he saw me. Anyways, he told us about the time he
    went in to buy a car for his daughter. He went into a dealership
    dressed in his usual manner and stood there for a long, long time.
    No one thought the sweet old man could possibly be there to buy a
    car. He sat down on the sofa and had some coffee and chatted with
    other folks that were there.  Finally, a young man came into the
    shop, obviously just starting out his shift, and asked him if he'd
    been helped yet.  The old man bought a brand new mercedes from the
    young man, and paid cash! 

    I don't know if the story is true or just a great lesson-teaching
    story for us kids, but his daughter did drive a mercedes.
