The Days I Love My Job
I write on this blog a lot on those days in my job that get me down. That only makes sense because I write about government regulatory policy vis a vis business and it is government interventions that often cause me the most heartache.
But there are good days too. I have been putting together a new division and really need someone with b2b sales and marketing experience to run it and get it going. I was just trying to figure out how I wanted to do a search when a resume came to me unsolicited from a current employee who has done a great job for us. Basically they were applying for our manager training program (all our campground managers start in front-line service jobs). Well, it turns out this guy who is currently cleaning bathrooms and doing landscaping for us in a campground is recently retired from over 10 years running a sales force for a $80 million industrial company and more recently running the whole division for that company for 2 years. Talk about just finding a $100 bill lying on the sidewalk!
