Nobody.

Usually has a midwestern accent. Talking a lot about specs and prices and shite.

Talking loudly from the moment he gets to the gate. Talking while lined up at the gate. Talking getting on the plane. Talking until the plane takes off. “Hey I gotta go.”

Hate that guy. One is sitting next to me in STL.

Start talking to him loudly like his conversation is with you. Whatever he says or quotes, just be real negative about it. Get in his mind. He'll either get the hint (probably not) or at least move away from you.

People gotta eat and put a roof over their family's head. Just trying to hustle, ya know. I applaud the generic product salesman. A true American hero. Plus they'll give you shwag and buy you meals and drinks.

Unless you work in the public sector, most likely your livelihood depends on a sales rep doing his or her job.

If we're talking just in the airport/airplane, you are exactly right. On one of my flights this past summer, the guy across the aisle hopped on the phone as soon as we landed throwing out office lingo left and right in a really loud voice. Half the plane wanted to strangle him.

Hey man, you don't gotta try and look like a big shot being on an airplane! I save all year for Southwest and wish I could hear a big shot salesman selling sex dolls or whatever

Yes. And the need to have an interface with the home office in Dubuque.

And about the great idea Ben Tobin had in the last interface that they need to have meetings about when everyone is back at the office

And about how they need to touch base soon to iron out a deal.

And about how Ellen in Marketing needs to "stay in her lane" concerning the latest proposals.

I could go on....
