Hi, I am sure many have heard of transition lens. Has anyone heard of a substitute transition lens? I was at this spectacle shop and the salesgirl was telling me about something "photo frame" (not sure if i have heard correctly). Is "photo frame" supposed to be good? Is it a perfect substitute for transition lens? Thanks for the replies.

To those in either Marketing or Sales as a career I was having a chat with a group of friends when this observation came about 1)Sales jobs seem to pay on the lower end compared to other functional displine such as HR, of course there is commission but as an employee you are indirectly participating in the profits of the co (i.e the value you can add which determines your salary, is to a great extent determined by the kind of company / business you work for eg if you work for sme, there is a limit to how much you can participate in the biz's profits due to the scope and reputation of the biz, if you work for mnc, they don t need you to push their products that hard (in most cases) so this results in a)more sme opportunities i find in sales b)Pay of Sales job generally lagging behind c)Abundance of supply of Sales and Marketing people perhaps leading to more competition in job leading to lower salary d)facing targets for not so attractive pay my friends in hr easily earn 7-8k and they are only middle hr managers(age 31-33), don t have to face targets and generally work for mncs which have a more stable and comfortable work environment and most probably on their way to 5 digit salaries in a few years. barring those real estate agents and insurance agents, i don t really see this opportunity in sales and in marketing with the specific experience (industry) usually being a barrier it does nt seem as attractive. HR on another hand is more versatile and functional The truth is i am a little tired with chasing targets and the prospects of sales seem waning with the above factors and am contemplating a chance of job function to hr (start from scratch) while i am still not too old - was told i most probably start again from 2.5 - 3k but will go up to 5-6k in 4 to 5 years and etc. In addition sales jobs are very age sensitive so i might expire early if i go on. guys need your comments from those who have experienced a career transition or whatsoever
