How do you figure?

To be fair, that is not something to be proud of. Some of the most annoying people are those who feign some type of disconnect with the world around them, believing they are far too superior to be bothered. I once had a manager who, when walking into a meeting one Monday said, “Was the Super Bowl yesterday? I didn’t realize.” You sound like him.

Same here. If you subscribe to extreme rhetoric that caters to showboat politics on steroids, then you will know him or his leftist counterparts. I will never ever condone any kind of violence, but the man built his profile based on hate

Concierge Key?

I’m conservative and have heard of him but never watched any of his content. He was not particularly significant outside of a narrow section of society. If anything that compounds the sadness of the violence. He was not leading a massive movement (I didn’t agree with a lot of his stuff but I also don’t think he was super radical either beyond being click baity). Not surprised most people don’t know him or much about him.

Well! Coming from Consulting realm, a sage advise would be to keep mum… opening your mouth is an admission of your … ignorance is not always a bliss, and admitting to it, is no less than a cardinal sin! It will take 2 mins of browsing to get up to speed. Would you have admitted to your ignorance for a high stake pitch? You are staking your reputation here but seem oblivion to that fact. Retract, rescind, redact.

Same.

You are not chronically online or steeped in politics - good for you.

Switching from commission to salary!

I’m considering a less sales-oriented role that doesn’t pay commission. The new role will have a higher base but lower overall earning potential.

What % haircut should be expected? As an example, if I make 100k (base + commission) today, would it be realistic to ask for 90k (10% cut) + equity to make up the difference?
