I’ve FINALLY found a job!!!! That’s right so starting tomorrow I get to jump straight into the grind and start meeting traffic at 7 in the morning. But surprisingly I am excited about the opportunity. The Job is with a company called Stallion, Inc. and they do all of the direct (face to face) sales for Bellsouth/AT&T in middle Tennessee. So I will be training for about a week…be considered a new entry for the first three weeks then be bumped up to a trainer.  The trainer position last for 6-8 months (aprox.) then you move up to Assistant Manager (this last for another 2-3 months)…and then comes full blown management. Do the math…in a year if I play my cards right and work my ass off I will get my own office, staffed by employees that I have hired and Bellsouth/AT&T pick up the bill. How sweet is that! BOOOYA!

Now yes for the next 10-12 months (possibly shorter) I will be doing door to door cold calls on businesses, but the commission is good, and the employees seem entertaining. So starting tomarrow the real world begins, which means:
***No more late nights…at least sunday through thursday night***

Well it’s early and I hate to say it…but Goodnight!

This is my epic journey across middle Tennessee in search for a Nintendo Wii. Unlike many others I did not have the time to camp out for the initial launch day and I was busy finishing school projects for graduation, so my Wii search began a month later than most.

I began my search on December 17 of 2006 after an all night graduation party. There had been a lot of speculation that the 17th would be a major Wii release day so my boys Aaron and Zack joined me as our search began at 5AM. Unfortunately I underestimated the demand for the Wii as we soon found out driving around Murfreesboro that there had been people camping out since the day before and the “wii” hours of the morning. We first stopped by Toys-R-Us where there were thirty some odd people waiting in line for 18 systems…so we moved on to Target, two EB Games, and Wal*Mart to be received by campers waiting in line, and all locations had nearly twice as many campers waiting to buy systems as there were expected systems.
