What y'all buy with money (or barter) today?

A very good question, that quite frankly I have no idea the answer to, have a feeling that was the aim though...

No mate ... innocent and genuine question ... and a fair enough answer. So as a retail rep i guess you get a free combo scanner, fax, printer machine and a P&S

How?

How do you become a rep for any company?

Um well I knew my predessescor (know idea how to spell that) and she gave in my CV when she gave in her notice, and said to give me the job

Well you get a 5D, 1D, 1Ds, 1D Mk II, 1Ds Mk II, 1D Mk III and a 1Ds Mk III, plus all the official associated accesories.

Then to top that off all the L lenses, in current production!

I meant freebies to keep. All of the things you listed I am SURE have to stay within the store, eh?

Nah if you have that job you keep them until you leave, they'd stay in your house

Well when you get to pro level, you are pretty high up so yes they do trust you.

That doesn't really help me much.

Um otherwise, you need to look at the Canon website if it's a full time permanent job you're after, (that'd be a regional CDC in charge of a team of reps) otherwise I don't know how they deal with it in the states.

Went for a shoot and a shop: went looking for 2x work smart trousers and two or three smarty-casual style shirts to go with. Everything is made for either grandpa's or teens tho' and have no wish to look like either. Bought zero and also shot zero - this town sucks for shooting and shopping. On my way home bought some Pesto, Ementaler and some bread from an Italian deli I never used before. Gets home and the bread is obviously from yesterday - nearly stale

few minutes later
sorry for being so brief back there, was rushing as someone called in right at that moment

the clothes sound good
twix and in between.. for certain age groups
can be a bit difficult

the bread sounds awful, nothing worse then stale bread
except maybe for toasting
but its the store should get a toasting , if you feel inclined to bring it back (no one would)
shouldn't have happened.
the bread is the main dish at a meal like brekky
scrummy (when fresh)

(brr ) bitterly cold winds here
is it freezing cold where you are

I buy shirts online as I know the exact size of the brand I usually wear but usually you have try stuff on or it don't fit. I have some job interviews coming up and some you are better dressing down a little but still smart, and others the full suit and tie look. I am fine on the latter but for the former I need to suppliment what i have already with some sharp/new stuff. So, I needed to shop but can do it in London next week.

As for the semi stale bread, well ... what is that saying about don't sweat over the small stuff
