It has been a while since I have talked to you all. The bad: After working for 8 years with AT&T, my employment with them has come to an end. Apparently they didn't need me as bad as I needed them. I spent 3-4 months looking for employment. I found a new home with a great compnay called NPA (National Powersport Auction) they are a few miles away, and I have known of them for about 20 years. NPA is a auction house for motorcycles, quads, boats personal watercraft... etc. I am a sales rep for them, and I go to dealerships, and try to bring in inventory( consignments) to the auctions. I have been working with them for 4 months, and so far so good. I do travel a lot. thank goodness the girls are old enough to not require my constant attention. I didn't take much of a hit in salary. so I think we are going to be ok. I miss the security of AT&T, but definately not the people. Love my new home NPA!
