ramblings

i'm not sure how this post is going to turn out. i got nothin. and in the true sense of my blog title, i am going to do nothing but ramble. maybe i'll write a stream of concsiousness post. those are always fun. but then that would let you inside my head and the way my thought process works, and that is just a little scary. i'm all over the place all of the time. sometimes i'll be thinking of something completely off-the-wall, and can't remember how i came upon it. it's weird. but i guess everyone is like that, huh? maybe not. when i was in high school, our english teacher made us write through the solid hour at least once a week. i would like to have read some of those papers. i went to a very small high school, but we had some raving lunatics in my class. i know of at least 6 that have been/are in prison and i only graduated with 44 people. that's not good odds, people. i, however, was valedictorian. arent you proud? i talked to one of my co-workers this morning, and told him of my plans to move this fall. he is a regional sales manager, and handles all of texas. i asked him if he could get in touch with people there, and at least get my name out there. he said he would, but that he would rather approach the VP of sales and marketing about me working on the sales force. interesting, eh? i've never done any kind of outside sales, but i'm confident i'd do well. not sure if that is even a true option, but it would be cool. i have been here for 4 years, know the product lines, and have formed good relationships with a lot of people. being on the sales force would automatically give me a 100% raise, solely in base pay. they also get commissions and bonuses. yeah, that would be nice. we'll see. if that doesn't pan out, at least i'll have some points of contact in austin. and now that i've taken away minutes of your life you'll never get back .... i'm out.
