Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later.

I work in Software sales as an SDR, I essentially build pipeline through outbound activity (cold calling). A couple weeks ago they changed our commission structure so that deals that don't close by the 30th won't yield commission. And our sales cycle is around 5 to 6 months. Needless to say, I lost about 40k after busting my a$$ building millions of dollars in pipeline.

Not quite a FTE, but i'm getting there :)
