Subject: RE: Malapropisms
Annual company sales convention, the end of the week, one of the district managers
volunteered to go on stage and do an example of a sales presentation. One of the company trainers
role-played the part of a business owner, the manager started out with his presentation...
I CRINGED when the manager replied to one objection of the client with "no, that
is a MISNOMER" when he should have said, "that's a MISCONCEPTION"... I wondered
how many of the 500+ sales people in the audience even noticed the mistake.
