Grover simply barges into Kermit\u2019s home and starts showing off his product before Kermit really even knows what\u2019s going on. Not to mention Grover completely wrecks Kermit\u2019s house without flinching because all he cares about is selling his product. Then at the end of the whole fiasco Grover runs out of the house yelling and celebrating that he sold something, and this shows, yet again, that he cares only about selling and making a profit.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, another thing highlighted in this video is the \u201cclassic salesman\u201d pushing someone into buying something. Grover pushes Kermit into a situation where he pretty much has to buy an umbrella. Kermit is then left in a cold, wet house and is out 5 cents.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/hensonblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/kermitweather.jpg\" alt=\"Image result for Kermit and grover\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Though this clip is quite far fetched it seems to give a good representation of what first comes to people\u2019s minds when they think of a salesman. They think of someone who cares only about selling and cares nothing for the buyer. In today\u2019s world however, this stereotype defiantly seems to be changing for the better, and hopefully it continues to do so as more customer-oriented salesmen enter the work force.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/UbyuFzoQGV0\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/UbyuFzoQGV0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This video highly emphases the idea of a salesman (Grover) trying to sell a person (Kermit) on something without actually caring what the potential customer wants.
