"Buying luxury cars is a business loser! Sell them all!" That's what he taught me.

Unique corporate culture
I joined the company I graduated from.Cars are bought by wayward presidents.Spending money on a car is outrageous!"There was a corporate culture of(What kind of corporate culture is that?).The reason is that the founder of the company, the president at the time, was a man who started as an apprentice, overcame various hardships, and worked his way up to build a human resource-related company.
No luxuries, hard work is a virtue, work 24/7."
The atmosphere was deeply rooted.(Now, it was a totally black company, but it was fun in its own way.)
And the president of the company also said to his clients, "You are a business loser to buy luxury cars! Sell them all!" I was a new graduate and a "pure" person who joined the company at that time.The president of the company has never been good with luxury cars."I kind of thought it was.
Ever since I joined that company, I've been working in sales, taking on training and consulting contracts for executives, and I've noticed that many of the presidents of my clientsThe company car is old enough."When we make a profit, we give it back to our employees and customers."He said, "They are all people like Buddha," and I listened to his story thinking, "They are all people like Buddha.
In fact, I did not see many foreign or luxury cars parked in the office.
I didn't know until I left the company.
Some time after that, I left that company. And around that time, Facebook started to catch on, and all the presidents of past clients began to apply to be my friend.
You all have a private luxury car that is very private.
This means. Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Lexus, Porsche, Ferrari, Audi...
Many of the photos posted included glimpses of cars, such as "I bought a new car" or "I'm going for a drive with my family." I thought to myself, "Well, everyone had luxury cars in their private lives back then, even if they didn't show them to their salespeople.
'An old company car is good enough for me... (but) I'll buy a nice one for my personal use.'
"When we make a profit, we give it back to our employees and customers... (but) we also give it right back to ourselves."
So that was that.
See, that's right. ...and on the contrary, I have been somewhat relieved. Now.Owning a luxury or target car motivates me to work hard."I have come to understand that, but these days I wish I had known more about cars back then when I was a new graduate, so I could have had more fun talking about cars with all the presidents of the company at that time.

Good evening.
I have not run in Ashiu yet, so I would like to run there next year.
I've been seeing a lot of white Panameras lately!
Oh! You should definitely try the Ashiu run!
The distance is short, but when it is empty, you can drive the mountain road comfortably ^_^.
Thank you for your help.
I was an office worker, selling auto repair supplies.
When I went to the Tohoku region on a sales trip, a customer once told me, "Driving a nice car is a sign of a successful business. I will not buy anything from a company that drives a dirty car.
If I were to replace my position and take my car in for repair, I would take it to a factory where the owner there has a reasonable car.
If the president of the repair shop is driving a Mark X, I would be willing to send it in for repairs up to the Crown class, but no more than that.
If the factory is like a factory where the president of the company drives a loaner car from one place to another, I would not send it in for repairs.
Because it is hard to believe that such a factory would care about the customer's car.
And I think it's a good idea not to associate with people who are jealous that you drive a nice car, and
I feel that people will not give me the evil eye if I drive a car that is adequate.
When I bought my Cayenne eight years ago, I asked myself, "Wouldn't that be too conspicuous and not nice?" I asked my oldest daughter about it.
'OTOH! Why don't you just ride normally?" He pushed me to buy it and I decided to buy it.
Looking back on it now, I think that "riding unaware and unmoving" was the right answer.

I see...! I wonder if the customer told you that because you are a salesman for a company in the auto repair business. But you certainly have a point.
>If I were to replace my position and take my car in for repair, I would take it to a factory where the owner there has a reasonable car.
Certainly, yes. Because it is an important car, then I think it is important to know how much the destination that will look after the car is taking care of it and whether it is in a car that is appropriate for it.
Otherwise, I am sure there will be situations where we will not be able to communicate....
Even if we don't judge a company solely on the basis of its car, the fact that it can afford a reasonable car means that it has a reasonable management.
>When I bought my Cayenne eight years ago, I asked myself, "Wouldn't it be too obvious and not nice?" I talked to my oldest daughter about it.

Girl, you are so cool!!!! He's so manly. lol!
But it's really true, by driving a Porsche, you don't have to deal with people who tell you what to do, and I think it's important to take the stance that you normally drive what you think is good ^^^.
