No need to apologize Tom, re-buzzing wasn't required and I know you have had your hands full since you've gotten back.
Still not to late to slip in a late body shot, but that was good advice on the part of Dad. Good to know where you stand as early on as you can.
The boy has grown up around sales people and he learned at a young age that people don't want to be "sold" stuff. He's learned the art of closing and has actually had senior sales people call him into their "sale" to close the deal of their's and then they "split the ticket". He is getting a good reputation with many of them in that regard.
Plus he has learned from working in the hardware that people always need more than they came in for whether or not they even know it. So he asks questions and encourages customers to ask questions. Just taking an interest goes a long way in the selling process.
i have an appointment in a few minutes so I am cutting this off here. Thanks for the support.
