he's a TV Licence Officer (for those that didn't know) - basically he's the 'nice' guy that encourages (cajoules?? ) them into buying a licence from him (for the same price as everyone else I hasten to add LOL) for which he gets bonuses if he gets xxx amount each 4 week period.
He had a monthly review meeting today - and discovered that, despite what he's been feeling are quite disappointing sales, he's actually 12th in the entire Country - including Northern Ireland (out of just over 100 officers) for "Quality Sales" (those that pay either cash or direct debit) - nonquality ones are the Cash Easy Entry cards which people on very low incomes can get.
So, despite only getting 2 sales today (well he had a really cr*ppy area to do today - villages miles apart from each other) he's come back in a really happy mood.
Whether he stays in it once I've attempted to cut his hair with the clippers for the first time is another quesiton
