Let's just say....hypothetically you worked in sales.

And one customer came up and had a chance to make you a lot of $$$, but that company was Kellogg Brown And Root, or Haliburton, or Reliant or Duke Energy....

Would you sell your company's product to them?

1. Maybe if I worked for a novelty shop

a few cases of itching powder, some fake vomit, a dozen joy buzzers, might work wonders inside any of the above mentioned corporate HQ. :-)

Edit: I forgot the whoopee cushions! They must be made in Poland...

2. Well.
If *I* owned the company, it would be my decision as an owner whether or not to do business with these organizations.

But if I didn't own the company, but was just in sales, I think it would be incumbent upon me to make the decision based on whether or not it was in the best interests of my company to make the sale...
