Also to anyone else considering this job, go for it.

Its a good job with decent pay for minimal requirments. As long as you have a good attitude and know who to sell then you will rake in the commission. The proprietors at Harvey norman are generally very good bosses.

For those willing to stick it out, there are also opportunities to progress up the ranks to managerial positions like 2IC, and eventually proprietor. I know of two guys my age who have made it to 2IC and one of them is undergoing training to become a proprietor in the very near future.

For normal sales people, there are a lot of perks on top of normal commision especially in computer departments, like planes trips over east to attend "conferences" (drinking parties after a company does a little show and tell) and "spivs" from selling certain products. You can score thousands of dollars in Shopping vouchers over the period of a year. Also lots of movie tickets and other toys. I now one guy who scored a plasma TV. There are lots of other incentives to sell also.
