OK---Am I the only rotten apple who that turned in phoney orders? Sometimes my boss was pressured by his boss for new orders. He pressured us to go canvassing. It was a cold sell. Sometimes I would cancel one of my old customers and then turn in a phoney new order for a prize. The prize was usually a trip to Palisades Amusement Park. A few weeks later I would cancel the phoney order and put back into the system the old customer. Everybody was happy. That 's how things worked in Jersey. That's what I learned.
