The bean counters see you as a total expense. Every dollar they pay you goes out the window. If you make some sales it helps out balancing the ledger. Now you are not a total waste of money, only a partial waste of money. I feel for ya. When I installed I was the schmuck who tried to talk people out of expensive packages. I worked in the poorest city in Pennsylvania and saw kids doing without every day, while having every pay channel. I remember one guy telling me he wanted "the basics, you know, HBO, Cinemax, Prism....."
