As I reported a while back, I started a new job on Tuesday and so far it has been great. I think it will be a super position and something I will love doing for a long time, more or less building and maintaining relationships to promote sales. It is industrial in nature.

It has been very MF friendly as I am in the office and attending classes for now, just training.

Here is the bad part,,,I found the last salesman's expense reports while cleaning the desk out and it was CRAZY!!!!!!! A basic day was to deliver breakfast to jobs, doughnuts, pastries, kolaches then go and meet a customer or group for lunch, then bring drinks and snacks late in the day to another jobsite. The deal is that I am talking huge amounts of food, on average, he spent $140 a week just on doughnuts, some days he spent $125 alone just at a doughnut shop.

As far as lunches, I can handle that by eating a salad but there will be so much more temptation during the day being around all this food.

I think I may have to stay on MF a bit longer, lol.

I will say that it was nice to give them my Driver's liscense and have them state they did not think it was me, they could not believe it.

I attended a lunch meeting on Wednesday and did not eat, it was Jason's Deli fruit and sandwich trays and a lot of it to boot. When one older sales guy asked why I was not eating, I replied the usual of "I already ate" but he was in the meeting prior with me and knew it was not the case as well as "This food will go to waste, get you some." When I informed him of my weight loss he was comical in the reply that I must have some disease to drop that much weight so fast and he better find another seat.

I will keep you guys posted when I become the doughnut delivery man, lol.

Wonder what everyone would think, if you started buying healthy snacks?

I do have one contact that will only accept fruit baskets. My company does not know the reason but I think I do

The guys in the shop love the breakfasts but she pays the bills so she will continue getting fruit baskets.

my thoughts exactly, Unca.

Mike ~ I'm crossing my fingers for you, and hoping that this job goes well. We all have to battle our personal demons so I'm hopeful that you're up for the challenge. I know that this would be a slippery slope for me and would have to try to devise some method for not partaking of all the goodies.

Best of Luck!!!
