Trouble praising double glazing

“Hang on a minute,” says Steve Mansfield. “Your correspondent Andrew Long ‘used’ to be a cold caller, and is ‘now’ a recruitment consultant?
“Since most recruitment consultants don’t have the faintest idea about, well, anything, whereas at least cold callers know that you need double glazing or cavity wall insulation, isn’t that a move down the career ladder?”
But Steve: in one job his role is to call people who don’t want to be called to try to sell them something that he doesn’t know about and that they don’t really want. In the other job, he’s a double-glazing salesman.
