This is getting stupid. I had nothing to do with Kevin getting the paint the first time around because I didn’t work for the paint store.

The point is he asked for a favor first, staffing for his business. I thought that this would merit him doing me a favor.

I think I should have taken a six-pack of beer, but from the phone call I think 45.00 would have bought him all the beer he wanted.

Some of you guys are real tough cookies. It would not hurt to be kind to another human being, especially if the other human is a fellow pelican that works for a paint store. I mean, I do control the pricing structure of every last part number purchased for his business.

This is very sad, and the harm is already done.

Crunch,

Pick up the bloody phone and call Kevin. Tell him the situation and doubt that he would have said no, but having someone else contact him and not tell him who its for would merit a no in my book as well.

You might control the pricing structure for the parts purchased for his business, but he controls where he buys these parts. Stop acting like a jerk and realize that he can buy elsewhere.

The two of you need to go out for a beer at a tittie bar and stop fighting each other. As well if you really are a sales rep, start acting like one and work with your account.

Just my 2c worth but I was a very successful sales rep for many years and was very good at my job. Customers can vote with their feet and checkbook and do when the sales reps start feeling like their business is theirs without working the account.
