Daily Dose of Sultnpapper 02/01/19> Waking up to a new world of opportunity… in my world.

How good...

“How good does it feel today?” I am glad you asked. I have two words for that answer; damn good.
Yesterday, as you know, started a new chapter in the life of yours truly and it has me excited for the first time in a very long time. It absolutely feels great to be working for a small company again and one that I can tell truly cares that I am involved in decisions involving the growth of the company.

After we got all the government paper work out of the way with the W4 and I9 paper work and sat down to start going over things about product lines and company focus the first thing that came up was that a couple of the key product lines we carry have offered the firm the state of Louisiana to cover for them. They told those lines that they were in the process of making a new addition to their company and wouldn’t commit to taking on that territory until I was on board and they had a chance to discuss with me if that was an area that we wanted to take on.

My input is valued...

My input is valued with these guys and that is something that hasn’t mattered with the last company for the last eleven years. Right then and there was all the confirmation I needed to know that I had made the right decision on choosing to go to work with them. From my location in Houston most of the state of Louisiana isn’t any further away than Brownsville, Texas.

I told them it didn’t matter to me which direction that the truck takes me North, South, East or West; miles are miles and it isn’t like I have to make the trip over to there but a couple times a year as a lot of the work can be done via email and phone calls so the decision was made to now cover Louisiana for those two product lines. Last I knew I didn’t have any outstanding warrants over there in that state so I was in favor of the expansion to now cover that area.

Besides, I like to...

Besides, I like to play a slot machine every once in a while. Another thing that is nice with this company is that if I want when I make these trips I can take the wife and kids if I want. They can stay at the hotel and swim during the day while I make calls or they can do some sightseeing on their own, then in the evenings we can do some family things too.

I could sit here...

I could sit here and write all day if wanted to today but I am going to cut this Daily Dose short and get to work now. I have a lot of things I want to accomplish today and this is only one of them. I am back and so is the Daily Dose.

Until next time,
