Kill your sales goals this year and pay for it with raised expectations the next, AOP baby.

Pretty much. During the five years I worked at a local Best Buy, from 2007-2009 we were the highest performing store in the state all year long. Then shit happened in 2010, we lost business and were knocked into third place, and suddenly became the laughing stock of the state. Like there was one manager at another store who said, "Oh my god, you work at THAT store? I'm so sorry." It's like three years straight of kicking their ass meant nothing.
