It' s not easy to work in a big company. There is the rigid

bored with the present work and feel tired of it. You will
lose hope for the future and lose your ambition and motivation
for the work, and finally turn to be a mediocre person.

"Do You Like to Be a Salesman in a Big Company? Why or Why Not?".
I Like to Be a Salesman in a Big Company There are many kinds of
positions in a big company. If I can choose one of them, I'd like
to be a salesman. For one thing, I' 11 be able to fully explore
my latent power by working under pressure, facing challenges from
the highly competitive market. To be a salesman, I can usually be
vigorous, friendly, generous and confident. Travelling will be
part of my job as a salesman which allows me to meet people of
different culture, different personalities. And travelling also
enables me to see the world. Another reason I like to be a
salesman is that I can have a feeling of being proud and
important, since a company exists to sell. All the work done by
others is only a pavement of a road for me to walk upon.
Furthermore, it will bring me great pleasure if I can keep a
friendly relationship and good cooperation with the previous
customers, and bring in new ones. This will be of much benefit
both to the company and to myself.
