Re: Monthly Quotas
We used to have a Revenue & GP quota, but the GP quota only mattered when it came to making the annual President's Club Trip. I even remember getting written up one month when I was only at 50% of quota but sold more than the GP target, because I only sold refurbished machines that month. Over the past 3 or 4 years, GP has rarely been mentioned.

Re: Golf Help!!
Art - Orlimar makes great "fairway woods". Normally a fairway wood isn't a driver (which is your #1 wood). If you don't play much, I would suggest getting a nice 3 wood to hit off the tees. Normally a 3 wood, because it's more lofted face, will allow a duffer (like myself) a little more room for error. Normal 1 woods (drivers) don't allow much room for error and are difficult to obtain loft and straightness. I would also suggest getting a firm steel shafted club. Don't get graphite because...
