Good strategy, I think I will ignore them and continue on my search.
By the way, isn't it interesting that in sales jobs they talk about "team players" when in reality they need an independent, quick on their feet type of person. My job doesn't pay "team commission" I'm responsible for my own territory.
Good Luck.
And, if it's any consolation, I work in IT. Every single company that I've worked in puts sales at the top of the list for anything (good equipment, fast service, etc) - even ahead of the CEO. The philosophy is that if you're not selling, then the company isn't making money and no one gets paid. :-)
