sales associate

A person that has joined a company or work force to deliberately help the sales of the said company. Tasks, assignments, and jobs are given to the person throughout the day to complete as well as dealing with customer's and customer service.

The main goal for a sales associate is to leave a lasting impression towards the customer and let them feel like they are welcome back at anytime. If the customer is happy, chances are, the company will be as well.

Associates

Formed by two founder members of the HFPC (Ches and Fin) along with Pricey, the Beserker and Moist in 1999, it was decided that the word of carnage needed to be spread unto the uneducated masses of the North.
Following Gillingham FC to such salubrious locations in England such as Preston,Blackpool,Nottingham,Stoke, Millwall etc, the Associates breathed new life into the decaying art of Football Hooliganism, excessive drinking, violence, vandalism and bugle practice.
The Associates finest moments would involve such tear-jerkers as the ransacking of the Boyce hotel, Pricey being arrested for mooning the riot police, Beserker doing a whole bag in one hit, Fin armed with 2 pool cues and bottles in the town centre, and Ches wrecking the phone box then laying out the bloke queueing at McDonalds late at night. Halcyon days.
God bless us all.

"Who set fire to that effigy of Sean Gregan at Preston on the terraces?"

"That'll be the Associates again".

Greeeeeeeeeeeeeegan You fucking cuntbag!

Associate

Someone who works for a crime family, but is not considered an actual family member. Usually an associate is of a different ethnicity, and a crime family will only let in people of one particular background.

If an Irish man does something like stealing cars for an Italian mob, the Irishman is considered an associate

Walmart Associate

The lowest of the lows. Generally poor, straight-out-of-high-school, teens that management likes to fuck in the ass, figuratively. Bottom of the list.

Homie #1: Bro, we should totally hang out this weekend

associate's walk

When you approach an Associate in a Big Box Store and request directions to an item or a department, the Associate will "guide" you to the location, using a very specific, walk style. They will walk in front of you and their pace is slowed down, similar to being the first car in a motorcade.

I was at the local Kohls and got lost looking for housewares. I asked an associate and they led me to the section. She immediately locked into her associate's walk and I followed like a lemming
