I’ve read the definition, I’ve tried to figure it out, I feel so stupid.

Thank you all so much! This was so helpful and you were all so nice about it!

Background- it was first said to me when I was working at an orthodontist office and he said I was too nervous during consults and wasn’t selling enough braces. I said that asking and video taping the consults and then having him pick every bit if it apart with me for an hour after each one was just wrecking my nerves; plus the patients always felt pressured when asked if I could record the session so they were put off and I was nervous and that just wrecked the sales process. He told me that was a strawman argument.
