Nice But Inept

If a salesperson’s nice but inept, His promises rarely are kept. Though true skills he may lack, He says, “I’ve got your back” So you think at his job he’s adept. But whatever he told you was fake, For he lied or just made a mistake. Thus your needs won’t be met Though you thought all was set; New arrangements you might have to make. When I think of it, maybe it’s best As experience seems to suggest, To complete any deal With one lacking appeal But whose help doesn’t make you feel stressed.

I always hope that the just made a mistake not lied "For he lied or just made a mistake." and I see that you are optimistic about it also.
