Hey I feel your pain. I was stuck late almost every night this week. And I'm definitely up for a couple martinis tonight--it's been a pretty shitty week.
Your post reminded me of Mrs. Dallas' next-to-last store management position. She ran a sheet music store that rented space from a piano dealer. The piano salespeople were always like what you described.... all it took was one customer, and boom, you have a $10,000 sale (or more). It was almost sinful if they deprived the theoretical customer of any opportunity to come by. ("Yeah, there's 15 inches of snow on the ground so a lot of people will be off work . . . . and they might come piano shopping!")
