Life of a Sales Person in Tech

Here is what life generally looks like:

I work Monday to Friday, and spend anywhere between 4-16 hours a day working depending on the week.

Work generally requires me to travel 2-3 days each week, but sometimes longer for upto 2 weeks. I always try to be back in Singapore for the weekend to spend with family & friends.

While travelling, I’m only put up at 5 Star Hotels (Marriott or IHG), and fly Economy or Premium Economy. When outside of Asia its always Biz Class flights.

Monday – Exercise in the morning, Work from Home/ Office, Spend time with kids and wife.

Tuesday – Catch early morning flight, Biz meetings all day. Check into Hotel for the night. Sometimes I have my local GF join me, else hire an expensive escort for company. Occasionay I may meet someone interesting in the bar, or lounge of the hotel and we spend the night together.

Wednesday – same as Tuesday.

Thursday – Exercise if no company the previous night, Work from hotel until afternoon. Catch an afternoon \evening flight back to Singapore.

Friday – Exercise in the morning, Work from home and Lunch with wife. Return to respective work places. Spend evening with family.

Saturdays may be spent going out with the family, and evenings with friends.

Sunday is exclusively with the family.

Can’t complain about my life. I make decent money (around 200k salary with almost 2x-3x in commissions).

All our holidays are fully paid for with FF miles and hotel reward points earned due to work travel.

I’m in my early 30s and have been living this lifestyle for the past 4-5 years. So glad the pandemic has eased out, and travel is back again!
