Another day in my life.
May 11, 2006Well, I know I promised more frequent updates but life gets in the way. Work is a real struggle lately. I do not enjoy what I do anymore - I feel that my ethics are being tested - way too much push on extended service plans which anyone who has done any research knows are a sucker bets. I don’t mind offering them to customers and letting the customer make the decision but I do not like the way some sales people misrepresent the benefits and then they are treated like hero’s and an honest salesperson is put down. I refuse to twist peoples arms. I cannot stay in this job much longer. Tammy and I will be traveling to Vietnam July 14th until 28th. We would like to spend longer but her duties at work don’t permit her to be away for longer. We will fly into Saigon and then journey north to Hanoi and a number of other cities. We also want to visit the prison on the island where Tammy was held for a year after her capture. I plan to take a lot of pictures and video. Her 2 bothers and will go also. We are going to celebrate her fathers 80th birthday. Her sister Minh will not go because Phil (100 years old) insists on going also if she goes and there is no way we are going to take him - he went with her several years ago and she said never again. I will get to meet her other sister who lives in Saigon. I have to get a number of shots before the trip and have been warned to stay away from poultry due to the bird flu. Well, For now I have to jump in the shower and get ready to leave for work. I work today from noon until 9:00pm and tomorrow from 8:00 until 5:00pm. I actually have Saturday and Sunday off - I am looking forward to a nice weekend with Tammy. We will take the Corvette out to the countryside to join some of our friends at Richard and Jackie’s house. It is really nice - they have their own lake. Let’s hope for good weather.
