Congrats! And welcome to the wonderful world of base salary + commission pay. Nothing beats getting paid commission.

maybe if you're an employee, but for customer service, phones, coverage, rate plans, and just about anything else cingular owns verizon in just about every way.

Would you like any ketchup?

I'm the friend that hooked him up. I previously worked for cingular, made roughly 36K last year. Sidebar: cingular sucks, don't recommend working for them.

That said, the average verizon rep is making around 50. When I was at cingular, most of my friends were having trouble making their rent payments; at vzw, most of my friends are all happy and chipper about being able to write off the interest from buying their houses. The top rep in my zone(out of about 8 stores) made 98K last year...both PT reps in my store cleared 50. The average commission check around here before taxes is roughly 1900-2400. Monthly.

And cingular's coverage doesn't compare, customer service sucks(ever had a phone thrown at your head because it's so bad? I have.), phones are more expensive...speaking from experience, fuck cingular.

And just in case I didn't piss off enough people...I drive a DSM

Congrats Brad!
