I admitted I was powerless over having to travel in 2007, and made my first two hotel reservations meaning long drives and hotel rooms. The sales team is out there finding opportunities and then my job is to train the clients in how to use our stuff. Although I have developed highly respected online learning tools for our clients, "they are still very old-fashioned and expect somebody to show up" according to our sales guys. I think maybe the sales guys are old-fashioned too, and like to give things away. No worries, its my job, and I will do it.
I have posted below some actual, factual and real stories found in the "Police Blotter" section of our local mountain community weekly newspaper. Who says living in the mountains doesn't offer entertainment:
#1: "At 1 p.m., a [local neighborhood] woman smoked meth an hour before meeting with her probation officer."
#2: "An 8:15 p.m. traffic altercation between two men on the 9000 block of ___ ___ ___ (the road and block we live on) ended when one of them fired a gun. The victim fled and was unharmed, but the suspect also escaped."
#3: "In a parking lot on the 6000 block of Highway [local highway], a furious driver rammed another man in the leg at 9:21 a.m."
#4: "A man broke through the front door of a [nearby neighborhood] house in the 200 block of ___ Way with a crow bar and an ax. He pinned the female resident to the floor and screamed death threats while waving his ax around. It was almost 9 p.m. when the cops came to pull him off her."
#5: "At 8:07 p.m., a man was rushed to the hospital after he fell unconscious at the Starbucks on the 200 block of ___ ___ Road. But doctors determined he was just very drunk."
...and that's the news from our part of the world *:-) Have Fun *:-)
