But when I hit District Manager I was so excited, and then I earned a free trip to Puerto Rico when my daughter was really young and we never could afford to travel beyond Disneyland.

I don't know if I could do tech sales, though, even though people tell me to do it since I work in tech in another type of job.
Sales Engineering is a great job if you're genuinely interested in solving people's problems, personable, and have a breadth of technical knowledge. It's not as high pressure as pure sales but you help support the sales team. I am 75/25 base/commission but if we hit our forecast of course we get other bonuses, etc.
