Career Change For JP

Post by JP »

I have a new dream job as of January 31, I get to talk to people about fishing, boats, ATV's and Snowmobiles every day. I have been hired by a local marine dealer as a sales and customer service agent. It is a great opportunity for me and I get to play with toys all day long :twisted: :wink: :lol: :lol: .
see you all at the upcoming area boat shows
Cheers
JP :lol:
Smile, It's a good day on the water!!

Good for you JP.

Just make sure that working in your hobby area does not turn you bad on the hobby itself.

Only problem I see is the best days for fishing, are the same days guys are looking for boats, so you will be working.

Looks like you will be one of those guys posting reports at 11am Tuesday's making us all jealous.

Thanks everyone for the support. I am very lucky because I still am able to fish in all my tournaments this summer and if anything it will enhance the experience.
Coming from my last job that was in sheet metal it is a breth of fresh air.

Congrats JP, a born salesman . The phrase "selling ice cream to an eskimo" comes to mind.

Somebody has to try all the new toys to be able to sell them to fishermans
(woman).
