Decisions decisions...
I'm stuck...I have to make up my mind about something that just talking
about seems so trivial..and it is, but I still need to decide
anyway. I want to get up to go snowboarding again...more then
just twice this season. I'm sure the Church will be doing their
youth group trip and I'll gladly volunteer again, but knowing the
season is going by so quickly I want to go... If the weather
wasn't so warm I'd go to one of the closer mountains, but with all the
rain we've had I can't imagine there's much snow left. Next
weekend we're going to Myrtle Beach...the weekend after that is pretty
much open (except that it's Superbowl Sunday and I have three different
parties to decide on right now...) and the following weekend is a
freebie followed by our Vegas trip. It's pretty quiet the rest of
the year, but if I can sneak in a few more runs then I'll do it then as
well.
I found out last night that I'm looking at a healthy bonus for the trade show and it can only go up from where it is currently. I think I earned every penny of it as I can take credit for two definite sales...one partial and a few that talked to me for a few minutes and ended up buying anyway (I don't really count them as I doubt I had anything to do with their decision). Maybe next year I'll get a little more detail on everything and just close them on my own...there's really no point in me passing the customer on to a sales guy who does nothing more then take their money then getting the size bonus. I know one of my 2.5 was a 140 homes/year builder which would have been like $500 or something. If not for the volatility of the sales market I'd actually consider going into sales, I think I like having a steady paycheck as opposed to a measly base salary and commission.
