Veteran agents who poop on newer agents. Playing the experience card could backfire.

Ambiguous verbiage would fall under the "Practicing Law". If they cross the line, it is easy for an agent to explain to their client and scratch out the wording.

Must be a lot of poorly trained agents in his area. (But I doubt it)

No, I think it's simply a case of an agent trying to use scare tactics on people.

I rarely have seen anyone make it to the top without humility, grace and compassion added to the determination to succeed. I don't see any hint of these qualities, with the exception of drive. And that's sad, because that tells me someone doesn't care how they get there, which means it comes at the cost of others.

What's Zig's mantra? Your attitude, not your aptitude will determine your altitude. I'm sorry, but there's a toxic attitude at work.

We have a couple of agents around here that are some of the most successful in town and they are complete jerks. Of course, I predict their meteoric rise to the top will be followed by a quick and painful plummet to the bottom as people get sick and tired of dealing with them.
