Turbulence

Life's Sunami struck quickly in December.
After months of interviewing, receiving turn downs left and right.... Kelly Services called me in early December to inform me that I had been invited to interview for an opportunity in Akron. Figuring I had nothing to lose, and after turning down a life insurance job over Thanksgiving, I went on the interview.

Soon, I found out I was considered for a job. Facing the insecurity of the further decline in the Real Estate Market and slowing of my closing business, I decided to take the offer and on December 8th, began my new career in Akron. The only thing that bothered me was the turning down of closings after I had taken the job.

Then, I did the numbers.Much to my own dismay, I was making about 300 per week less than I had been averaging for the past several months. To further the aggrivation, I most recently discovered that I was NOT accomplishing the progress I had hoped, and that in fact, I may be terminated because I was just not catching on as fast as they wanted.

So - while I made it to the end of the month... all's NOT rosy for the beginnings of 2012.
More when I have it....
