Brett's new career has been an awesome experience for him so far. He's learned a lot just in the month that he has been there and has found success in meeting his first sales quota. One of the unexpected perks for him has been the small incentives that have been given out along the way to meeting the sales requirements. Although his favorite has been the cash bonus for meeting occupency rates, the scratch off lotttery tickets that he has accrued since he started working have been a lot of fun as well.
Brett told us tonight that he has earned fifty cents on the dollar for the lottery tickets that he has received thus far. Doug said that was pretty good as the average return for lottery tickets is 19 cents. Because of that statistic, Doug said that he would prefer the $1 spent for the ticket. Cal completely disagreed. He said that he would love to get the lottery tickets for a job well done at work. The chance to win $100 or $500 would be thrilling enough as a bonus. I realized that Cal was always the lucky one with money and probably would end up with the top cash prize anyway. Brett's reaction has been somewhat in between Doug and Cal's. He realizes that he probably won't hit big, but it has been fun trying especially since he didn't have to pay for the tickets. My opinion is drastically different than all of the guys. Whether Brett earns lottery tickets or cash bonuses, I am just so incredibly pleased that Brett has found the job that he was looking for and pray that his success continues.
