This goes for all workers with a retail component to their role, especially trade outlets.

That 15 minute that you waste whinging out not being able to find the key rings and then debating which key ring you wish to purchase, before buying othe only one in your price range, and arguing about getting a trade discount, could be better spent processing a $50,000 trade order, or answering the phones that continue to ring while you demand personalised attention.

Seriously, unless you are are in the industry, Trade discounts are reserved for trade customers who’s very existence and livelihood hinges on saving a few dollars here are there on a job. The discounts are never as substantial as you expect and you DO NOT DESERVE THEM.
