Friend 1: So who do you like now?
Me: Some guy. But just a slight crush.
Friend: What's he doing?
Me: He's studying but he was once a Sales Rep in this XXX bank tho.
Friend: Yummy!
Me: hehe. but someone told me not to date Sales rep.
Friend: puhhhlease! i thought no one should date PRs, like you.
Me: excuse me? i'm innocent.
Friend 1: PRs and Sales Reps are the same. They know what to say and how to say it.
Me: herm, you're right.
Friend 1: of course. then maybe you guys can date each other. Hah! that would be FUN!
Me: hm....
to those who don't know what i'm doing now, i'm a Public Relations in training. So basically, i'm a part of the communications management/department in an organization...in future.
According to my cousins, Public Relations sweet talk their ass off. Although she may be only 3% true about public relations, but i kinda thought she was right too. I thought dating Sales Representatives would be a no-no because they know what to say and how to say it, but then again who am i to judge, when in future i'll most probably be making money solely based on "sweet talking" or knowing what to say or how to say it? heh~
I like this guy a used-to-be sales rep and i'm a public relations. it's like dating me with hoohoo. or maybe even dating me with short hair. gosh. or maybe even dating me but with muscles. EEW <<<>
PRs know when to listen and when to take note. Because it's always been a part of our job. To notice changes, and to tackle it and then prevent it. It's in the job's nature to attend to people and make sure we get what we want and they get our attention. That's the sexy part about PR. And we use it as an advantage when we go dating. Good PRs know when to shut up- not when to speak up.
what about Sales Representatives? I remembered this guy told me once, that the thing he sold was not a perfume, but a "fragranced bottle" that can be carried anywhere.
What kinda bullsh*t is that? I was thinking... perfume IS a fragranced bottle and it ALSO caann be carried anywhere. He knew i would say no to Direct Selling Perfumes because it's not branded, so he changed the theme to "Fragranced Bottle". *makes DUH face*
sales reps would lie and make you listen to them eventhough you just feel like slapping them at times. Yes yes, dont we all feel like doing that to our boyfriends at times too? But we still listen to them! And if they do came up with a good excuse or explanation, we would buy it. Whyla? After buying it, we would be like: "Why am I buying this again?".
Obviously PRs and Sales Reps are both praised and critisized in this matter.
e.g Dont date them, but they're nice people though. err excuse me?
First of all, DONT is a strong word. I suggestdont date but make friends with PRs and Sales Reps instead. Isn't it much better? As a PR in training i kinda agree that dating one of "us" is risky and may lead to heartbreaks (dont ask why). I find most PRs (you can include me if you want too) are influential and persuasive. not just for our assignments, but in real life too.
In conclusion,
Maybeeee just maybe PRs and Sales Reps are best avoided. IF you hit the jackpot and date the worst PR/ Sales Rep in history- the one that cheats and lies for living, that one you really should kill him/her and tell his/her boss! Most probably he'll get promotion though :D
but take note of this, last time i check, PRs and Sales Reps are human too. they want or know the real thing too. they like and hate the same thing too.
I think we have to kiss (if have to) all the wrong PRs/ Sales Reps to get to the right ones :)
AMEN!
Love,

Just to add, I think you shouldn't be dating lawyers! Nuff said
