I dream of the day I am going to quit.
I've been working as a solar SDR for the past year, I have experience in sales and sales are fun, I am familiar with cold calling, getting effed by people and all the "perks" that come with sales.
What I cant stand is the micromanagement every step of the way, stupid "motivational" LETS GOOOOOO
I NEED MORE ENERGY TEAM from my boss, and I say boss because our manager quit and he was the best guy ever.
There is no new manager because no one will work for a pay thats 50 euros more than what the senior SDR earn, oh and btw there are 3 of us now....yup 3 of us, because my boss fires people like they are candy, no one to train then, put them on the burner. they dont produce, blame the people and fire them via email.
1 of the SDR is a yes guy to the boss and gets a free pass at a lot of shit and it pisses me off.
But whats more annoying is the fact that were expected to book 3 appointments PER DAY starting today with leads that are 7 years outdated, hey I get it, it sales, but fuck me if I can convince a person who had a slight interest in solar or none 7 years ago.
Not to mention the contradictory shit he says :
and then literally today
I dont even reply anymore, honestly I am fuming, I am giving it my all for this shit pay, I already applied for a job x3 my basic salary I am just hoping they will reply back and schedule an interview because I'm at my wits end.
Last month I made 6142 calls that average to 279 per day, some days was 250 some days was 300 or 350.
at the end of the month I had 15 appointments set.
He said "hey I think we should commit to at least 1 appointment per day and keep going till you get it no excuses no matter what ".
I told him that sounds like you want me to work overtime till I make sure I get one, how long is that 3-4 am my time? 10pm US time? what if I dont get it. We kept going back and forth him telling me we have a set quota blah blah blah and I just outright told him I am not working overtime...
I dont need motivation from you Broooooo, I am here to make money. thats my motivation, just give me the tools to succeed.
I just cant anymore.
Thank you for reading this and I am sorry if my rant was too long.
Sincerely
Fuck you V***y
