For example car-salesman?

If i had been able to drive i would have sold even more. As it was i had to go out with George, the 75 year old cleaner, driving. He reeked of pipe tobacco and had a glass eye from a shrapnel wound he recieved on d day. That was his story anyway. He never seemed to grasp one of the fundamentals of the test drive which is that the prosepective customer should get a go behind the wheel.

Not true ,I was never a used car salesman. I did once sell my own mother but that is a different story
Spider may have been though.
