More and more I've been asked to make intros as SS Rolex gets hotter and hotter.
I think I speak for a good number of people who refuse to wallow in this sort of toadying to a jewelry salesman. This is debasing, and really just ridiculous. We can see why the gray's are doing so well.

So...I need a hookup. How would you feel about introducing me to your AD's sales rep?

Yes, well social media tends to annoy folks and the relationship is in your head and one sided. Turn off the dough, see what happens.

OP, I don’t begrudge a bit of venting spleen, but this would’ve drawn zero backlash in the ‘Official: Forum Rant Thread’.
