Local payroll software salesman Kyle Shayler has today drawn upon his industry intuition, and navigated his way around a sticky situation.
A couple of beers deep at a client Christmas party in Betoota’s Old City District, Shayler was caught a little off guard.
Like many other salesmen around the country, Shayler has a distinct disregard for the people who keep him in work.
The salesmen who plies his trade in the CBD looks upon all of his clients with disdain for some reason, so when Shayler saw one of the said clients approaching him at an event, he had to get one of his colleagues to come to the rescue.
“Oi, Stevo, I’ve forgotten this fucking blokes name, we did that work for him mid-way through the year but fucked if I can remember,” Shayley said to his colleague.
“Introduce yourself of the bat, so I can make it look like I remember his name,” said the man who apparently has too much going on to be able to remember the names of people he worked with for a period of time.
Thankfully, however, his colleague obliged and Shayler was spared some embarrassing blushes.
Speaking to The Advocate moments ago the salesmen informed us that after a while everyone just becomes the same.
“All these fucking clients man,” said the young man enjoying some expensive drinks and canapes on the client’s purse.
“Honestly, the just become so interchangeable I struggle to differentiate between them a lot of the time.”
“Anyway, Steve saved me so all good.”
