Unfortunately, a lot of people are in sales because everything else they can do pays minimum wage. These people either don't stay in sales long, or succeed by being crooked or deceitful.
I don't want to denigrate the great salespeople who know their products and are there to make the best fit between customer and product. I bought shoes today from an incredibly knowledgeable shoe salesmen who saw some problems in my walk and recommended a pair of shoes that is actually relieving much of my chronic back pain. Okay, they cost real money, but I feel that she did me a favor.
