It was a long day....

I am really leaning towards finding a new job. I am just not cut out to be a salesperson. I don't mind sharing what's in my heart. I don't mind telling you how I feel on a subject. I don't mind if you believe differently. I don't mind if you think I'm a total nut.

What I do mind is spending my day trying to convince someone that a particular appliance is for them. How the heck do I know what that hunk of junk can do or not do? Sure I can tell you what I've been taught to say, but how do I know that the $1200 "HE5t Kenmore Front Loader Steam Washing Machine" will REALLY get your clothes cleaner than the $350 top loader in the next aisle?

I CAN'T. Not unless I use the darn thing myself. This is where my problem lies. Well, that's one of them anyway. I just can't seem to sound convincing when I'm talking to people. Adults. Maybe that's the problem. I miss talking to children. HA! Can you believe I just said THAT?!

The world is coming to an end!




"Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light" Matthew 11:28-30

I couldn't do that Marsha. Selling stuff. I would explode.

I happen to be happy!I suck and lie
I do miss my Dad very much. I'm having a hard time getting over this.
I appreciate all you have done/typed. I really do my friend.

It'll take time. That blows...but it's the truth.

One day at a time. It's still so new K. You will never totally "get over" it. It will become easier as time goes on as you begin to accept it and learn to move forward.

No directions for accomplishing that dear. Not that you would read them anyway, being a man and all. HA!
