    New Job, Sort Of

    Hello All,

    After 21 years, I have started a new role in my company. In the past I have been a sales manager leading a sales team and the operational responsibilities with that, and also doing some outside sales. Now, I will be outside sales full time. The reason I mention it here is I will be covering all of WI, MN, SD, ND. So when the days get long again next year and I am out traveling, rather than be couped up in a hotel in the evenings, you might run in to me at a construction project near you! Have a good winter everyone and if you are in those areas feel free to send me a pm, and perhaps we can meet up sometime. Darren

    Good luck with the new job! I miss working field service too sometimes, traveling the US and world. Spent many years on the east coast and the south before I was detecting now I'm kicking myself. If i didnt have the job i have now i would probably travel again if the chance presented itself. So have fun, go see a little more of the world, and dig some good stuff!

    Congrats on the new position. Having traveled some in my past I can relate to having to go back to the hotel room. Hope you find many sites but be sure to check the laws.....
