I worked in an office where this happened. I used to do ad sales. We were on commission, until the owner realized we were outselling him. Now, he claimed to be the "World's Best Salesman" -- Willy Loman, anyone? -- so, just to prove how bad we were, he took us off of commission and made us salaried.
Afterward, he couldn't figure out why our sales figures dropped, and he was having to work harder than everyone else in the place! Ha!
Sadly, having worked in sales, I know jo_jo_ba is wrong. Most sales people are motivated by bonuses.
I can't count the number of times I've seen a salesperson give someone a "free" extended warranty by knocking the warranty price of the item being sold off of said item. What most people don't realize is that the commission on a warranty is way higher than that of a product.
What's really interesting is that the salespeople who don't practice that(me included) tended to be the better performing salespeople.
I wanted a nice red hat too but apparently now I'm some kinda Certified System's Administrator... but I still don't have that red hat... I've heard there is something similar to the red hat tho, it's called Fedora, I wonder if that comes in red!
