Six million in extra sales and they give you a life saver? If you only make the shareholders an extra 5 million do they rob your house to make up the difference?

Good work team let's hope for another 6 million
It looks like they were going to give two mints but thought better of the added expenditure.
They were shipped back to the same sweatshop in Bangladesh to have the 2nd mints ripped off. The whole operation cost the equivalent of 47 pizza parties.
Surely this is just a joke. Right?
I don't think its a joke, and don't call me Shirley.
I've seen this image before...
..and yet I never noticed that this person is so low to the ground in a file cabinets room, that they must be sitting on the floor.

One of my SOs supervisors actually gave gold stars for good work. These were full grown adults, with children/mortgages/cars and, they thought, professional careers. She had worked there over 30 years when this happened.
Moral was quite affected by this "genius idea"!
Don't salespeople make a lot of money on commission if they're involved in selling expensive equipment? Like, even if they have a 1% commission, if they sell a state of the art MRI machine that goes for $3 million that's a good $30,000 from just one client alone. Even without a salary, it only takes a few sales per year to make a living wage.
Sales people generally make a commission, but you're assuming they are selling expensive equipment to begin with. My cousin does inside sales at a tire company, mostly tires for construction vehicles. His commission is based on whether they meet sales numbers, and is considered part of his "normal" income, typically referred to as "on target earnings" or OTE.
A company that beat their number by $6mil and isn't popping champagne means they are probably a billion dollar or more corporation.
Source: I work in pre-sales, get commission, do not get mints or pizza. I did get a $40 credit to our company store, which lets me buy shirts and hoodies with the company logo on it WITH MY OWN MONEY.
