Gawain 0 #1 June 12, 2003 Thanks to those who provided some encouragement to my little diatribe. Here's the latest update, pending some paperwork which is being completed at this moment (thus I am keeping certain details out for now): My current employer will not be utilizing my services before the anticipated termination date (yes!). I will be handing in my resignation at the appropriate time, thus avoiding having a "termination with cause" on my background and will begin in-depth training on a new job/product set on June 30th, for two weeks in New Jersey. This has been referred to as "boot camp" and they are conveying some very significant requirements. This is a much smaller, faster environment with greater structure, but the compensation package is insane and the support appears to be incredible. Coming from an open-ended, long time-line, strategic mindset, I will have to unlearn a lot of my sales experience for this commodity which will not require those open-ended questions and months of thought. This is scary, exciting and I'm antsy with anticipation, as I am feeling this much needed change and enhancement to my career. I will keep you posted as more details develop.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

Michele 1 #7 June 13, 2003 HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As I recall the words I spoke - make it yours, Max. Make it yours! Now. How's this. Go jump. But don't - DON'T - do belly work. Learn to sitfly. Why? (I can hear you screaming....hush for a bit).... I know you're hard core belly. Good deal. But how to allow yourself to dump all of the past sales techniques and get flexible to a new one? By trying something new, in a "safe" and known environment. Prove to yourself you have the flexibility of mind (we all know you do!) to take something somewhat similar, and learn it a new way. Learn to sit, and then go to New Jersey and learn the company drills, and go kick some major ass. You rawk, Max. And, uh.....yeah, well, I tole ya so!
