'Let's see how that works out for you': Car dealer caps salespeople's commission, sales team bands together to make them regret it
Management at one car dealership messed with the wrong sales team. In trying to save themselves money, these managers soured their whole team's attitudes toward their jobs.
If you've ever heard a great salesperson sell something, you know it's a true skill. Some people are just born with the ability to effortlessly talk someone into buying their product. They can make you go from not wanting a fancy car, to taking out your wallet and buying something way pricier than you intended. In the moment, their pitches sound so enticing! By the time you're signing your paperwork, it's too late to back out of that random add-on that seemed so important a half hour ago.
Natural talent seems to play a big role in sales jobs---you have to prove that you can lull customers into buying anything. The only way to prove this to your employer is to start raking in those sweet commissions on every sale you make. It seems like common sense to hire great sales people, and let them soar to their highest ambitions. The sales people are happy, and management is happy.

Being a salesperson at a car dealership is so lucrative that it's become a stereotype. When you picture a car salesperson, you imagine a wealthy business professional with some fancy cars of their own and an even fancier house. That's probably why this sales team was completely shocked and angered when their management started making changes.
Speaking of managers who don't care about their workers, check out these mildly infuriating moments, like one person whose Christmas bonus was “a $20 off coupon for a frozen turkey.”
