SalesRants #9: Nigerian Government Officials, Horny Housewives and a BlackBerry

Our anonymous SalesRanter may be the only ad sales guy in America without a BlackBerry:

These days, if you’re not hurriedly smacking digits into a $400 piece of plastic during your leisure time and remain accessible at the drop of an email, you are very much out. Without a BlackBerry, you certainly don’t have stock options, and you sure as shit don’t have a director-level title. No BlackBerry, Treo, or Motorola Q? You are not part of America’s grand scheme to bludgeon the pleasure out of every minute of the great American workday.

And he likes it that way.
