Another Twitter nitwit

It’s doubtful many sales reps would tell potential customers how annoying they are. But they might talk about it on the Internet.

That’s the kind of talk recently discovered on the Twitter page belonging to a CareerBuilder salesperson.

The page was deleted after several bloggers reported on the snafu. But while it existed, it contained a few noteworthy quotes, including:

  • “People really annoy me… especially those i’m trying to get to buy stuff.”
  • “OK seriously, this man needs to sign his contract. Whatever meeting he’s in right now better be about buying CareerBuilder products.”
  • “I’m really sick of my clients right now.”

Sound like someone you would want to buy from?

There’s no word on what, if any, action CareerBuilder took. What would your company do if a manager found an employee publicly insulting customers? Let us know in the comments section below.

    GONE!!! That is the place he/she would be if found guilty of that type of behavior. Customers are our lifeline. If one needs to vent, do it privately where it will not affect the company’s relationship with its customers.

    This twitter nit needs to get a grip! The economy causes all companies to think more than “twice” about purchasing anything but the bare bones to keep on keepin’ on!
