Yeah, I’ve been feeling the same way, “why can’t I win lately?” Wtf? But in regards to work for me. I’ve had shit sales all month. I’m only at 66% of quota … idk if I am going to make it. And it’s not a bad month for the store. Everyone else is raking it in, quite literally. So I think, is my energy f@cked? What the heck? Usually I am the one that can take the punches with grace, I have the encouraging words and composure (“everything always works itself out” mentality), but this month is unearthing me. I feel like a poor sport but really, I’m worried. But what do I do about it? Just keep going. See what happens. Do what needs to be done. Trust. Keep checking myself. Stop bitching. Stay in alignment best I can. Focus on the flowers. Ha. This too shall pass. Always does. I haven’t been taken out yet. It’s ok. Count my blessings. So so so many blessings. Really. One foot in front of the other. Just keep going. Just keep going. Always keep going. And I will, and I do. So it is.
I used to be a super at a retail store once upon a time. I was exempted from quotas since I was more in a managerial position and had other focuses to keep the shop running apart from sales. But I don’t think the quotas were like obligatory but rather more suggestions. This one Chinese girl was always our big seller, and would get a monthly cash bonus for her sales. Truthfully, I felt like selling people on things they didn’t want was sort of a rip off, so I’m glad my employment capacity was a bit different in that regard. I remember some poor people loving me thinking if they bought some rip off item I’d get a commission. I felt bad and told them not to waste their money cause I ain’t getting squat from any sale. Lol😂 Bad manager I suppose. But I did what I beloved right, and not all sales are righteous. Don’t sell the soul for a sale, and you’ll make quota God willing.
@@mikeuptegrove Thanks. Yeah, I am not at all a sales person. I’m not good at being fake and I’m not good at bsing and I am not a good lier. All of those traits I am pretty stoked on. I got the job through a friend, not really qualified for the part. But our jewellery usually sales itself and so I have no problems, as long as my energy is on point. I won’t push someone to buy something because I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night. I do a lot in the store that is admin and keeping things running smoothly, but I am not a manager. I help my manager a lot. She’s at retirement age and on her way out. All I can do is hope and stay focused. Stay authentic. Tomorrow is the Full Moon in Libra. Maybe that will help bring my energy back into balance. I’ve been feeling a little off.
