Book Description
What do you want to be when you grow up? The question poses a considerable dilemma, when you aspire to become a superhero as a child, and the urge to fulfill this desire, only grows stronger as you become an adult. Where does one apply for work when you want to become Batman? Is there some kind of superhero academy? What do you put on the resume? Do you wear a cape and hood to the interview? These were all questions I had to deal with when I graduated college and entered the work force, hoping to become a superhero salesman. Believe it or not, there is a host of twisted and demented individuals out there, masquerading as teachers, clients, buyers, bosses, and colleagues. These are formidable foes that present a "clear and present" danger to society, and must be dealt with in a judicious and at times forceful manner. Join a delusional superhero salesman in Sales Tales: Grow Up Young Man! as he takes on a series of villains to make the workplace a safe haven for you and I, while pursuing America's purest art form: "The art of selling," and in the end, discover the true "meaning of life."
