Tired Today

I am extremely tired today. I don't know why. There wasn't that much stuff at work but halfway through the day I wanted to go home so bad. Sigh.

I showed my apartment to a prospective tenant today. She really liked my place but she thinks the price is kind of steep. So I did my own little sales pitch. I mentioned the plus points of living in Montclair. It's close very to Montclair Village and it's quaint little shops, close to the tennis courts and only a short bike ride to the Regional Park trail heads. There's abundant wildlife even on my backyard, deer and racoons that visit at night. Blah blah. I actually enjoyed showing the apartment and it made me think about getting a sales job. But I'm sure it would be frustrating if you can't sell a thing. Maybe I should look into a car-selling jobs. Who knows, I might make more that way.

But I heard about this guy that works for a car dealership and he got fired because he would discourage people from buying those big as trucks unless it is necessary - like if they have a farm, construction firm or any other kind of business that would require the use of a truck. He is an environmental activistand he firmly believes that trucks, because they are major gas gulging monsters, should only be used for what they were really intended for. So he got fired, because he was causing too much loss on the car dealership's business. Was it justifiable that he got fired for it? Hmmm. I'm not actually sure. Looking at it on the business owner's perspective, yeah, he should have been fired because he was hired to sell and not to promote his own agenda. But then if you think about the social responsibility of these businesses, I would say, it was wrong to fire him. They shouldn't be selling those trucks to people who don't need it in the first place.

Or better yet, car manufacturers should stop making gas gulging monsters. We only have one earth and moving to Mars may be too expensive.

That is why my next car will either be Electric or a Hybrid.
