Are sales jobs even worth it?

I'm getting pretty desperate for a job seeing I've had nothing for five months. I see an opening for a financial professional associate. Doesn't sound half bad. Do more research into it and read people's reviews. You have to pay them hundreds of dollars for courses and licenses exams. Then they want you to complete a project where you have to fill out a book of 200 people you know and include their marital status, hobbies, activities, occupations, etc to try and sell them insurance. And it's a job that's fully commission- there is no base salary, and involves cold-call sales. Who the hell would want to do that? Selling insurance seems like a shit job.

There is desperate and then there is insurance sales.

I honestly would rather work in McDolans than try to sell people shit like that.

"I've been battling with the struggle of love and anger and the anger has won. It's impossible for me to go back to the way I was. I've tried changing back but it didn't work. I still had it in me and doubt it will ever go away. I have no control over it anymore. It has become part of me."
Every job is worth it if you're unemployed.

Nope, not worth it at all IMO because of the obvious chance you sell nothing or above the minimum expectations of your employer.
