Rants
- Managers tell me to "Uncover" credit opportunities. I tell them Ive already tried to sell those customers. They tell me that uncovering isnt the same as selling. The pricks have developed a new way to say "Slam some credit on these businesses."

- I cleared out my pipeline this week and had like 100k in closed lines of credit. Now i need to 'uncover' some more

- District manager is in office today, micromanaging and telling me that i need to take a 30 minute lunch instead of a 60 minute lunch, but still need to work 8am-5pm.. hmmm, that sounds like 8.5 hrs/day, yet they refuse to pay overtime!

- I hate my job now. You know you are screwed when you meet with the top rep in the company and they complain about the same stuff that you do, yet they are still making $5-6k in commission each quarter and you are topping out at $1.5k. Ugh.

- I turn 25 on sunday.

Raves
- I turn 25 on sunday!

- R is running well with the cold snap that hit. 35 degree change in 12 hours!

- RNC is over soon so the traffic will go from 'NIGHTMARE' to 'awful'.

- Furniture arrives tuesday.. If you asked me 2 years what i would be excited about, it wouldnt have been the delivery of my couch, coffee table and end table. haha

wearing
Dark Navy pinstripe suit, powder blue shirt, black kenneth cole shoes, armani belt, brooks brothers glasses, and an armful of burden, since I am soon 25 and dont know what the cr@p i want to do with my life!

(1) If I keep doing the job I am doing or a similar one I will have to commute. This would involve spending Monday - Thursday in Florida and Friday - Sunday in Ohio. When would I see my kids age 3 and 1? How do you place a dollar amount on watching your kids grow up?

Be very wary of this. My aunt did the EXACT same thing, but travelled to FLORIDA from MN. 2 years later it finally broke the marriage, and they are getting a separation and potentially a divorce. This happened within 2 weeks of them deciding to move the family to florida permanantly. Splitting time can be very dangerous and it has irreperably damaged my Aunt's relationship with her 3 daughters and destroyed her marriage.

Her problem was more that she became more invested in her business than in her family. She expected no one to mind her being gone all the time. I think the trick is to make sure you can find a good balance. She didnt.
