Hahahaha welcome to sales. Papa Sam takes a fat bite out of your commission checks.

Beware, ensure your deductions are correct with HR. Else you'll be like me writing an $8k check come tax season.

Career advice that I give to the people I manage- do one more thing everyday that you weren’t going to do or didn’t feel like doing- for your team or for your client. Could be notes, a follow up, a reminder, raising your hand to tackle and drive something-whatever. That little extra effort against something you didn’t “have” to do, every day, overtime will make you invaluable
