So my first week of training at Cb is complete. It was everything you might expect a class devoted to sales would be. I have two more days of training this Monday, and then it's to the field with me.

The biggest surprise for me is how close in relationship my company is like a youth group. They support each other, have "sermons" on attitude and integrity, and they have games/raffles to lift morale... Essentially, it's a early career group that worships money. I feel almost like I'm treading onto an alien world, or a parallel universe.

It is another world, isn't it. A lot of sales oriented places actually bring in Christian speaker types like Curt for example. After a bit it can actually work for a missional person as a natural communication bridge.

Of course the question becomes 'living' out the things they talk about. (I'm sure you will just because of the kind of person you are).

Praying for you. Miss you!

Fortunately, you have a good head on your shoulders, know what's real and have the Holy Spirit to guide you. Plus, you have your whole family praying for you. It's a skill building time and a paying the bills time. I love my boy.xoxoxoxo
