I have this feeling James is about to be kissed by a car sales man in his area. ;D These by the way are the two " boutique hotels" that James stayed at while in Sri Lanka. Ms Linden wouldn't mind staying there. ;D |

It's a hard life James, but someone's got to do it.  |

I try to read the column in the bus back home but my hands were frozen because I missed the bus and had to wait 15 minutes in the cold.
I guess the owner of the Porche dealership knows now that he is not coming for a new car :-)

There's no way in h*ll you could get me to do either job. I hate dealing with customers and I hate the idea of any job where my paycheck is based on a commission or I don't get paid at all. I'm just not a people person, lying to make a sale, or good at grinning and bearing it. From past experience of working in a restaurant environment, the customer was more of an **s* than right. I love this column. Thank you, Dutch. |

I like the look of the second hotel. The beach side view is breath-taking.

Poor chap, being harrassed, sort-of, into buying a new Porsche, that would really annoy me, I can't stand pushy salespeople.

I don't like pushy sales people either and would never want that as a job, ever. Thank you, Nobody. |

I hope they stop bagging out sales people soon or I shall get cross.  Having said that, car sales people are a special breed. The chap in the BMW showroom, wasn't making much of an effort to get me to buy his poxy 1 series this afternoon. Shames. 'cos I want one. |

Puss, it isn't all salespeople I have an issue with, just the over zealous ones who make you feel harrassed and like you have to buy something from them.

Lots of birthday wishes going through. I sent mine early, since I'm going to be gone most of Friday and wanted to make sure he got it before then.
